Cognizant officially opened its new delivery centre in Adelaide with its first intake of recruits.
Cognizant first announced its intention to open a delivery centre in Adelaide in November 2021, to offer its clients in Australia and New Zealand more direct access to locally based and highly skilled technology experts.
That expertise includes software, AI, Machine Learning, cloud computing and data analytics, to help Cognizant’s clients solve their most important business challenges.
Jane Livesey, Chief Executive Officer of Cognizant Australia and New Zealand, celebrated the opening ceremony of the Adelaide delivery centre on Monday 10 October, with Cognizant’s new Adelaide workforce.
“I’m really excited to see our doors open here in Adelaide and meet the first of our growing teams. This centre will soon become a thriving hub of digital experts who are skilled and ready to partner with Australian businesses and governments for their Digital Transformation initiatives,” said Livesey.
Cognizant intends to hire 1,600 digital roles in Adelaide by 2026 by recruiting talent locally, interstate and internationally. To reach this goal, the company focuses on hiring people in the early stages of their careers as well as those seeking a career change to digital technology, providing the necessary training and reskilling to prepare them for their new roles.
