Jobs

A supply chain consulting firm will expand its headquarters in Carmel , creating up to 96 jobs by 2016, state officials announced.

Beginning Monday, Marion County residents with Hamilton County jobs will have a new bus service. New shuttles will be available to transport commuters from bus drop-off locations in Fishers and Carmel to stops much closer to their jobs, said Ehren Bingaman, executive director of the Central Indiana Regional Transportation Authority.

Carmel has some of the best schools in the country. Its residents occupy some of the most important jobs in the region.
