Database agency Merkle to hire 50

Merkle Inc., one of the leading database marketing agencies nationwide, is looking to hire 50 new employees over the next couple of years at its new Denver office.

The Lanham, MD-based firm has opened a 20,000-square-foot office in downtown Denver that will help Merkle service its existing and future clients. The agency recently opened offices or bought shops in Boston, San Francisco, Atlanta and Seattle.

About 75 employees from Merkle's two existing locations in Denver will move to the new facility. The positions open include account managers and client leaders, statisticians, database analysts and software developers, creative and production staff, general office support, and strategic consultants and business analysts.

Merkle has more than 800 employees nationwide. Revenue this year is projected at $190 million.
