Germany’s Deutsche Bank is reportedly set to recruit 1,000 people for technology centres in India. The bank will hire both freshers and experienced professionals.
As per the Moneycontrol report, the hiring will support the development of the bank’s internal technology capabilities to meet evolving consumer requirements.
The bank committed to investing €13bn between 2019 and 2022 in its digital transformation, Deutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing said.
Furthermore, the bank’s global head of Technology Centres Dilipkumar Khandelwal noted India’s key role in supporting its digital transformation strategy.
Khandelwal was quoted by Moneycontrol as saying: “There is a conscious effort on creating an engineering driven culture, to get our people to internalise and get more people to focus on engineering and coding aspects to build niche capabilities that are required for the bank.”
The bank has selected four regions for its technology centres – India, the US, Romania and Russia. Currently, the tech centre in India employs 4,000 people.
