Capgemini is expanding its presence in Eastern Europe to meet ongoing client demand for outsourcing services with a new centre in Iasi, Romania. The centre will perform first line IT help desk support and business continuity work for Capgemini’s outsourcing unit. The new centre will be modeled on Capgemini’s nearshore centers in Krakow and Katowice, Poland.
Iasi is one of the largest university towns in Romania, offering a qualified pool of talented and skilled employees for Capgemini. The language capabilities of the graduates will help Capgemini to meet continued demand from its European outsourcing clients, supplying staff fluent in French, German, English, Italian and Spanish.
Richard Dicketts, Global Head of Infrastructure Management at Capgemini, commented, “Opening a new outsourcing centre in Romania highlights the ongoing demand for these services, despite the current economic climate, and enables us to continue to help our clients grow, innovate and maintain a sustainable competitive advantage.”
