Global tax and accounting giant Ernst & Young plans to build a new client services center in San Antonio that will create 600 new jobs.

The company's $10 million investment will get the backing of a $2.6 million grant from the Texas Enterprise Fund, Gov. Greg Abbott said Wednesday.

The San Antonio City Council is to vote next week on an incentive package that will include a six-year, 100 percent tax abatement worth about $243,000, according to MySA.com. The package will also include a grant capped at $309,000 over five years that awards the company $1,000 for every job it creates with a salary over $50,000 a year.

EY, which has about 200 employees in San Antonio, chose the fast-growing city over Atlanta and Jacksonville, Fla., said Rene Dominguez, director of the city's Economic Development Department. The 54,000-square-foot center will provide technical and operational support for EY's financial services group.

"In reviewing other markets for this project, San Antonio's workforce availability in cyber, tech and financial services, plus the competitive cost of doing business, aligned with the project needs," said Randy Cain, EY vice chair and Southwest region managing partner, in a statement.
