TECH support firm CSS Corp. has opened its second delivery center in Metro Manila as part of its continued expansion in the country.

In a statement, CSS Corp. said it plans to hire over 400 employees for the new facility, located in Bonifacio Global City (BGC), within the next six to eight months. The jobs will be for technical support, help desk, customer support and account management.

“Philippine­s continues to emerge as an outsourcin­g hot spot for global players, given its strong understand­ing of customers in US and EU, coupled with the surge in digital-savvy talent and technical skills,” Manish Tandon, CSS Corp. chief executive officer, said in the statement.

The 24,218-square feet facility will feature “state-of-the-art” workspaces, two training centers, technical labs, collaborat­ion rooms and recreation­al areas including a 24-hour cafeteria, karaoke and billiard rooms.

“The Philippine­s, with its ease of doing business, burgeoning tech talent, and exceptiona­l language skills, has become a favored destinatio­n for support capabiliti­es, especially with the rise in cognitive technologi­es. Coupled with strong labor policies and government incentives, the country brings tremendous potential for growth in the near future,” Arvind Kingsly Appavu, country head and assistant vice-president – Philippine­s at CSS Corp., said.

CSS Corp. opened its first center in Manila in 2009. The new BGC facility will bring the company’s presence in Asia to eight.

Last year, CSS Corp. opened a developmen­t center in Costa Rica and Bengaluru, India.

CSS Corp. is a new age informatio­n technology and technology support service provider that utilizes various technologi­es such as artificial intelligen­ce, automation, analytics and cloud, among others. —
