LSE Group recruits over 100 tech professionals

London Stock Exchange Group’s Business Services division (LSEG BSL) in Sri Lanka has completed the first stage of its set-up operations, with the recruitment of over 100 tech sector professionals for the Group’s new 26,000 sq. ft. technology centre at Expert City in Maradana.

Set up in May 2016, the LSEG facility will be manned by 400 high-technology professionals after it becomes fully operational by the end of this year. LSEG’s investment in Sri Lanka will also provide an immediate boost to the IT sector of the country.

Scaling up its operations in Sri Lanka in a significant way, LSEG recently completed the first of two large-scale recruitment drives planned for this month at its Incubation Centre at Expert City.

Attracting the interest of a significant number of local IT professionals, these recruitment drives are led in Sri Lanka by Symon Hughes, a London-based LSEG recruitment veteran, supported by a dedicated local recruitment team. Recruitment Team Leader, LSEG Sri Lanka, Symon Hughes said, “Our efforts are aimed at ultimately filling 400 new technology job roles at our facility at Expert City.”
