GCC Setup & Talent

Build your India capability centre — and the team that makes it count.

A Global Capability Centre (GCC) is the captive India centre that global companies — especially from the US and Europe — use to run technology, engineering, data, finance and operations in-house. India hosts more than 1,700 of them. We’re your talent partner for building one: setup handled, team hired, centre made to perform.

Staff itLeadership-first hiring, then the team — with the employer brand to hold them. This is our craft.
Set it upLocation, entity, compliance and EOR — answered for your model, not a template.
Make it performActivate, upskill and future-proof the team so the centre owns real mandates.

A GCC isn’t an offshore cost centre. Done right, it’s a second headquarters.

We build for mandate, not headcount

India is home to more than 1,700 Global Capability Centres — and the next wave is moving up the value chain, from support functions to product ownership, AI and R&D.

We help you enter that wave deliberately: the right city, a clean setup — and, above all, the right people. GCCs are a new focus for us; talent is not. We bring a proven track record building teams across domains, and we lead with the part that decides whether a centre works: who’s in it.

What we do

Talent first — and the setup around it.

Leadership & team hiring

The GCC head first, then the team — executive search and scaled hiring across engineering, data, product and ops.

Employer brand & attraction

Make a little-known global brand a magnet for India’s best in a fiercely competitive market.

Location & city strategy

Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai or NCR — matched to your talent supply, cost and function mix.

Entity, compliance & EOR

Entity choice, registrations, payroll and EOR — so you can operate and pay compliantly from day one.

Operations & workspace

Real estate, IT and the operating scaffolding — so the centre is genuinely live, not just a signed lease.

Governance & setup model

Data protection, statutory compliance, and a build-direct or supported build-operate-transfer path — structured to your control and risk appetite.

Who it’s for

Three ways into an India centre.

US & European multinationals

Companies standing up — or expanding — an India centre for technology, engineering, data, finance and operations.

Global enterprises & conglomerates

Enterprises and family conglomerates standing up India delivery capability they run as one organisation.

High-growth scale-ups

Funded scale-ups setting up an India engineering or operations hub as they cross into a global operating model.

How an engagement runs

From business case to a delivering team.

Scope

Function mapping, location and model options, a talent map and a clear business case for the centre.

Establish

Entity, compliance, EOR and workspace — everything needed to legally operate, pay and onboard.

Hire

Leadership first, then teams — executive search and scaled hiring across India’s major hubs.

Scale & retain

Ongoing hiring, employer brand and retention so the centre keeps growing — and the people you hire stay.

Beyond setup

Don’t just build a centre — build a capability engine.

Setup and hiring get the centre live. These allied services make it perform, grow and future-proof itself.
