Hitachi Group company GlobalLogic has opened an 180-seater satellite office in Mahabubnagar, near Hyderabad, as part of a hub-and-spoke strategy to grow footprint beyond major cities in the country and tap into talent.
Dedicated to content engineering business operations, the 18,000 sqft facility, inaugurated on Tuesday, marks the rollout of the hub-and-spoke model to position the company to tap into tier II/III cities near existing hubs and talent hotspots. The company is committed to leverage local talent and has partnered Telangana Academy for Skill and Knowledge (TASK), a not for profit organisation set up by Telangana government to facilitate skilling of youth and make them more employable, GlobalLogic said.
In an interaction with The Hindu here on Monday, Group vice president and MD-APAC Piyush Jha said 50% of the company’s global headcount of 30,000 is in India and works out of the Noida, Gurugram, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Nagpur and Pune facilities. By virtue of an acquisition, Kochi joined the list of office locations recently.
