Cincinnati Bell and CBTS, a leading IT services and technology
provider, is pleased to announce it will create 137 new jobs to
support the company’s ongoing investment in fiber networks that
enable high-speed connectivity, and network centric technology and
professional services to help business customers solve problems
anywhere. CBTS’s latest job creation will be made possible by a Job
Creation Tax Credit (JCTC) from the State of Ohio. JobsOhio plans
to provide assistance for the project, which will be made public
after a final agreement is executed.
CBTS, which serves clients in all industries across the United
States and Canada, is based in Cincinnati and is a subsidiary of
Cincinnati Bell Inc. CBTS has partnerships with Fortune 500
clients, large healthcare organizations, multiple universities, and
state and local governmental agencies in Ohio and across North
America. Investment in attracting and developing talented IT
professionals is critical in order for CBTS to continue supporting
its existing enterprise customers, and to attract new customers
through continuous technology innovation.
“We appreciate our strong partnership with the State of Ohio,
and we are excited to grow our employee base in Southwest Ohio,”
said Leigh Fox, President and CEO of Cincinnati Bell Inc. “The past
year has highlighted the importance of connectivity and
collaboration technologies. It has also demonstrated the importance
of supporting customers and the communities we serve during
challenging times. Today’s announcement will enable Cincinnati Bell
and CBTS to continue delivering mission-critical technology while
giving back to our communities well into the future.”
Cincinnati Bell and CBTS employees in 2020 raised more than
$80,000 to support schools across its footprint to help ensure that
students and their families had access to healthy meals,
educational materials, and hygiene kits when schools closed. The
company also launched a partnership with multiple organizations in
Greater Cincinnati to bring low-cost internet to thousands of K-12
students who lacked connectivity in what has increasingly become a
virtual learning world. Cincinnati Bell and CBTS employees are
consistently among the most generous contributors to campaigns that
support organizations including The United Way of Greater
Cincinnati and ArtsWave.
“Throughout the pandemic, at least half of students in the U.S.
have had to attend school remotely, which is just one example that
shows how important it is for students, employees, and families to
be connected virtually,” said Kimm Lauterbach, REDI Cincinnati
President and CEO. “CBTS’s commitment to the Cincinnati region,
both in terms of jobs and connectivity, helps the region stand
apart. I’m grateful for our partnership with JobsOhio and the Ohio
Development Services Agency for their support of this project and
their commitment to helping people stay connected.”
“Our employees are the most important asset we have at CBTS,
where we are committed to delivering an outstanding customer
experience every day,” said Jeff Lackey, President of CBTS. “This
agreement with JobsOhio will help CBTS source the talent that is
necessary to deliver an outstanding customer experience, drive
additional growth at our company, and further strengthen our
community engagement efforts.”
