India's GCC Surge: How Strategic Talent Acquisition is Fueling the Next Wave of Global Innovation

BANGALORE, India - May 16, 2025 - PRLog -- India's position as a global epicenter for Global Capability Centers (GCCs) is stronger than ever. With over 1,580+ GCCs operating in the country and more multinationals setting up or expanding their India operations, the demand for highly skilled and niche talent is reaching new heights. The latest GCC hiring trends for 2024 reveal a sharp uptick in roles across AI, data science, cybersecurity, product management, and digital transformation.

As global companies seek to unlock value from their India-based hubs, strategic hiring has emerged as a mission-critical priority. This is where SilverPeople, one of the most trusted GCC hiring experts in India, is playing a transformative role.

"Hiring for GCCs is no longer about volume—it's about depth, specialization, and speed," says Pallavi Goyal, Ops Head at SilverPeople. "We work closely with global and Indian leadership teams to co-create hiring strategies that are not only agile but future-proof. Our tailored approach ensures that companies hire not just for today's skill requirements but for tomorrow's innovation agenda."

From setting up new GCCs for global fintech and eCommerce majors, to scaling niche teams for existing centers in AI, ESG, and automation, SilverPeople has become the go-to recruitment agency for GCC companies. The firm's proprietary FAT hiring methodology*, deep industry mapping, and strong network of senior leaders make it one of the best recruitment consultants for GCC expansions in India and the Middle East.

As one of India's top GCC executive search firms, SilverPeople is also seeing a rise in leadership mandates for roles such as Global Head of Cybersecurity, Director of Product Innovation, and Chief AI Officer. The team believes that strategic hiring will be the differentiator for companies looking to unlock innovation and cost efficiency through their Indian GCCs.

With cities like Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, and NCR becoming high-density GCC corridors, hiring challenges around talent scarcity, skill readiness, and location constraints are growing. SilverPeople's consultative approach is helping firms de-risk talent decisions and build sustainable, innovation-led teams.
