Global IT and digital solutions outfit Hexaware Technologies has opened a new Birmingham facility, aiming to create 250 jobs.
The facility was officially opened by West Midlands Mayor Andy Street, who participated in a ribbon cutting and traditional Indian lamp lighting ceremony.
Mumbai-based Hexaware said that since then, a surge in demand for applications operations, end-user computing services, and ServiceDesk support has convinced it to step up its growth in the West Midlands while diversifying its portfolio of services.
The expansion plan forms a vital part of the business’ UK growth strategy, which is focused on establishing itself as a trusted partner for innovative IT and digital services.
The company said the company will scale up its Birmingham facility to house 250 talented professionals by 2025.
The onboarding process for over 60 local employees is underway, with plans to actively seek additional top-tier talent.
During the 2022/23 financial year, India overtook the US to become the West Midlands’ leading Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) source, with tech-led investments into the region representing a prominent trend.
Hexaware CEO Srikrishna Ramakarthikeyan said: “We want to deliver personalised services to our large and rapidly growing British customer base while helping build and improve the economy and talent in local communities.
“Birmingham and the Midlands, with their rich and diverse talent base, offer immense potential to meet both objectives.”
