Flutter Entertainment has announced the opening of a new Global Capability Centre in Hyderabad, India.
This opening also includes an investment of $3.5m and a commitment to India’s skills market with the office consisting of 80,000 sq. ft with three floors and including 700 employees in areas such as Data Engineering, Game Integrity Services, HR Operations, Procurement, Safety and Security, and Customer Operations.
This hub has also been recognised for its Leadership in Energy and Enviromental Design, as Flutter looks to reduce its environmental impact, while it is also making a contribution of £30,000 ($39,021) to support local initiatives around Hyderabad as part of its ‘Do More’ commitment.
Flutter Entertainment COO Phil Bishop said: “Our expansion in India marks a huge milestone in Flutter’s growth and shows our continued commitment to investing in top talent to drive business growth globally.
“With centres of excellence for Data Engineering, Game Integrity Services, Customer and HR Operations, Procurement and Finance, and through the power of the Flutter Edge, the Hyderabad Global Capability Centre is designed to foster creativity and growth and strengthens our presence in the Indian employment and skills market.”
Flutter Entertainment India Managing Director Ashish Sinha added: “We are excited to expand our facility in Hyderabad as we continue to strengthen our presence in India. We aim to grow while maintaining a challenger mindset and leading the sector globally and India presents a significant opportunity for our business.
“This expansion aligns with our global vision of Changing the Game by enabling continuous improvement in product and technology across iGaming and sports betting across our portfolio of brands.”
