Vanguard, a globally renowned investment management company, has announced its decision to establish its first Global Capability Centre (GCC) in Hyderabad, India.

The Hyderabad GCC is set to become a hub of innovation, focusing on cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, and mobile engineering.

Over the next four years, Vanguard plans to hire approximately 2,500 employees, marking a significant milestone in its global expansion strategy.

Why Vanguard Chose Hyderabad?

Hyderabad emerged as the preferred location for Vanguard’s GCC due to its diverse talent pool, robust technology ecosystem, and business-friendly policies of the Telangana government.

The city has established itself as a global hub for technology and innovation, attracting numerous multinational corporations.

Vanguard’s CEO, Salim Ramji, highlighted Hyderabad’s unique advantages, stating, “Hyderabad was an obvious choice for us because of its diverse talent pool, quality of living, an ecosystem of tech expertise, and an innovation mindset.”

The Telangana government’s proactive approach, led by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, played a pivotal role in securing Vanguard’s investment.

During discussions with Vanguard’s leadership team, the Chief Minister emphasized Hyderabad’s potential as a GCC hub and welcomed Vanguard’s decision as a testament to the city’s global positioning.

Focus Areas of the Hyderabad GCC

The Hyderabad GCC will serve as an integral part of Vanguard’s global operations, driving its IT mission and goals. Key focus areas include:

  • Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML): Developing advanced AI solutions to enhance business outcomes.
  • Data Analytics: Unlocking the potential of data to drive strategic decision-making.
  • Mobile and Cloud Engineering: Supporting Vanguard’s mobile-first initiatives and cloud adoption strategies.
  • Cybersecurity: Strengthening the company’s digital infrastructure to ensure data security.

The GCC will also act as an innovation hub, fostering collaboration and creativity among its workforce.

Vanguard plans to invest in state-of-the-art facilities, starting with an interim office at Sattva Knowledge Park.

It also plans to expand to a larger facility as the headcount increases.

Vanguard Hiring Plans and Workforce Development

Vanguard’s hiring strategy for the Hyderabad GCC is designed to attract top talent in technology and engineering.

The company will begin recruitment in June 2025, initially focusing on senior leadership roles to establish a strong foundation.

By the end of the year, Vanguard aims to onboard a few hundred employees. It plans to scale up to 1,000 employees by 2026 and reach its target of 2,500 employees by 2029.

The company is committed to workforce development, offering comprehensive training programs and opportunities for career growth.

Vanguard’s emphasis on talent acquisition reflects its strategic shift toward building internal capabilities and reducing reliance on third-party partnerships.
