Following Peckham’s mission, the new inbound, federal contact center will offer up to 1,000 jobs for persons with various physical, mental, emotional and learning disabilities.

 

“Peckham has been in operation for nearly 50 years, with a presence in Phoenix for more than a decade,” said Nate Vander Laan, Vice President of Facilities, Peckham Inc.

 

“The Valley offers a rich employment pool, with many individuals with disabilities who may be looking to enter or get back into the workforce, or who have faced challenges maintaining employment because of their barriers.

"Peckham is intentional about building inclusive workspaces that integrate universal design principles and incorporate assistive technology to promote a path to greater independence and self-sufficiency. We are excited to expand these resources, services and job opportunities in this region.”

 

Peckham was represented in its lease negotiations by Kyle Seeger, Vice President, Ryan Bartos, Senior Managing Director, and Jami Savage-Gray, Executive Vice President, all from the Phoenix office of JLL. Pat Boyle of Cushman and Wakefield represented the landlord, Menlo Equities.

 

“This is a centrally located, plug-and-play space where Peckham can immediately occupy and begin operations, and where employees can easily access their workplace from many points of the Valley,” said Seeger.

 It currently operates an inbound contact center within the I-17 corridor. It will relocate and expand that operation into the new 48^th Street location, supporting the same federal contract.
