On the occasion of the center’s inauguration, WNS’ CEO, Keshav R. Murugesh, said, “WNS’ new delivery center in Visakhapatnam marks our targeted expansion in this vibrant city.

Starting with less than 50 employees in 2012, today we have grown our presence to more than 3,300 employees with over 2,000 employees added in the last two years alone.”

As of September 30, WNS has a workforce of 57,503 professionals across 60 delivery centers worldwide. The company operates from its facilities in Canada, China, Costa Rica, India, the Philippines, Poland, Romania, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

“In addition to building a robust talent hub, WNS has also expanded the depth of services offered to clients globally from the Visakhapatnam center. The city offers the right talent mix with in-demand skill sets including Cloud, Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, and Cybersecurity. The availability of talent and the Andhra Pradesh government’s steadfast support for the IT-BPM industry is catalyzing the city’s rapid growth as an IT-BPM destination of choice.”
