The new facility will occupy approximately 150,000 square feet in Dunwoody. Hiring will begin immediately for roles in technology, HR consulting, client management, and sales.
Dunwoody Mayor Lynn Deutsch commented on the decision: “Dunwoody provides the ideal setting for TriNet... We are thrilled to welcome TriNet.” Similarly, DeKalb County CEO Lorraine Cochran-Johnson remarked on its impact: “TriNet’s investment in DeKalb County is a testament to the strength of our workforce... The creation of 750 new jobs will bring invaluable opportunities.”
