In a bid to service its expanding European and North American client base, Tech Mahindra is setting up a new Centre for Excellence (CoE) in South Tynside, UK.
This is the sixth such centre and will create 500 jobs over the next three years, the company said in a filing to the Bombay stock exchange.
The centre will service Tech Mahindra’s clients specifically focused on delivering a number of government sector specific services in application development, application support and BPO services.
Mahesh Nagaraj, Tech Mahindra’s Vice President- strategic initiatives said: “South Tynside was chosen as the location for business expansion of Tech Mahindra based on critical evaluation process and key parameter that shifted the balance was the support from the council’s executive management team. This centre will be a showcase for Tech Mahindra’s services in the UK/European public sector space. The centre is expected not only to generate direct local employment but also provide a boost to local business.”
