Indian IT companies Mahindra Satyam and Tech Mahindra are due to expand their Sydney operations, stepping up recruitment and creating hundreds of new jobs.

The two firms merged last month and the expansion will take place over the next three to five years.

The state of New South Wales’ acting minister for trade and investment, George Souris, welcomed the news yesterday at an event marking the opening of the combined firm’s new offices in Chatswood.

He comments: “The additional staff will be employed in highly skilled IT infrastructure and project management roles in North Sydney and Chatswood.

“The expansion in Sydney of these two global companies, Mahindra Satyam and Tech Mahindra, is further endorsement of our State’s position as an IT hub in the Asia Pacific. It’s also a sign of confidence in the business environment in NSW.”
