DENVER (CBS4)- Kaiser Permanente is bringing 500 new jobs to the Denver metro area.

The health care provider will open an information technology campus in Greenwood Village in January 2013.

Kaiser Permanente has begun recruiting and hiring staff for its new campus.

About 500 IT staff will be hired in Colorado by 2015.

The Kaiser Permanente IT office will be located in a 120,000-square-foot, five-story building at 6560 Greenwood Plaza Boulevard in Greenwood Village.

The building offers easy access to major highways and has several shops, cafes and fitness centers within an easy walk. The building also includes an independently operated deli and a day care center.

"Kaiser Permanente's plan to open a new IT campus and create hundreds of jobs in Colorado is welcome news," said Gov. John Hickenlooper.

"We are delighted to bring a new IT campus to Colorado that will serve as a center of excellence," said Donna Lynne, DrPH, president of Kaiser Permanente Colorado. "Metro Denver's demographics, coupled with a healthy real estate market and an expansive talent pool of potential employees, make it the ideal location for Kaiser Permanente's IT campus. We're happy to be supporting Colorado's economy with a healthy dose of new jobs."
