GCCs in India Are Evolving Beyond IT to Innovation & Strategy

Global Capability Centers (GCCs) in India are no longer just handling back-office IT tasks. They are transforming into strategic hubs for innovation, digital transformation, and specialized capabilities. As a result, there’s a growing demand for niche talent, especially in industries like BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) and healthcare, where technology is redefining operations.

The BFSI Boom: Hiring for Fintech & Cybersecurity Experts

The BFSI sector has always been a major player in India’s GCC space, but its role is rapidly expanding. With the rise of fintech, automation, and stringent regulations, these centers are aggressively hiring for specialized roles.

Some of the most in-demand positions include:

• AI-driven fraud detection experts to enhance security and prevent financial crimes.

• Regulatory technology (RegTech) specialists to navigate compliance complexities.

• Blockchain developers to drive secure transactions and smart contracts.

• Cybersecurity professionals to safeguard sensitive financial data.

• Quantitative analysts to enable data-driven financial decision-making.

According to TeamLease Digital, hiring in BFSI GCCs is expected to grow by 20% in the next few years, underscoring the increasing importance of digital finance and security.

Healthcare & Life Sciences GCCs: The AI-Powered Revolution

The healthcare and life sciences sectors are also experiencing significant transformation, driven by AI and data analytics. As GCCs in this space scale up, they are looking for experts in:

• AI-powered diagnostics to improve early disease detection.

• Medical imaging innovations for more precise healthcare solutions.

• Biotechnology advancements to support drug development and research.

This shift is not just about hiring more professionals but about finding highly skilled talent that can bridge the gap between medicine and technology.

Why India is the Perfect Hub for GCC Growth

India continues to be a global hotspot for GCC expansion, thanks to:

• A massive talent pool with expertise in cutting-edge technology and domain-specific skills.

• Cost-effective operations compared to other global markets.

• A thriving startup and innovation ecosystem that fosters collaboration.

• Government support, including the new GCC policy introduced at the 2024 Bengaluru Tech Summit, which aims to bring in 1,000 new GCCs and generate $50 billion in economic output by 2029.
