North Carolina Operations Center AKC employs approximately 300 administrative and professional employees at its Operations Center in Raleigh, NC. The office is located just off the 440 Beltline with easy access to both the city and to I-40. AKC's Chief Operating Officer heads the Raleigh office. Major divisions include Registration, Customer Service, Compliance, Event and Judging Operations, and Companion and Performance Events. Information Services, Purchasing, and Human Resources are also located here. In addition, two AKC affiliated companies, AKC/Companion Animal Recovery and AKC/Canine Health Foundation, are housed in the same location with the AKC Operations Center in Raleigh, NC. All will be relocating together to a new location in Raleigh. Visit the North Carolina operations center page Raleigh office moves in 2008! After a search of more than 40 locations in the Raleigh area, the decision was made to move the Raleigh facility to the Brier Creek Corporate Center near U.S. 70 and I-540 in northwest Raleigh, about a 15-minute drive from our current office on Centerview Drive. The new location, a completely new building located in a fast-growing retail and corporate development area, will provide more visibility in Raleigh through its location near major roads and the RDU Airport, as well as a prominent display of American Kennel Club signage that will be seen from I-540. We expect to complete the move by the middle of 2008. Directions to current Centerview Drive location |
