Investing in our workspaces

We recently announced the creation of a new world class campus in Pune to house BGSC India. The campus, which will be developed over the next two years, will play an important role in Barclays’ future and bring together a number of Technology, Operations and Functions teams into a single state-of-the-art work environment.

The campus will be Barclays’ largest facility outside its global headquarters in London. This significant investment and commitment represents an important milestone for Barclays’ operations in India. Once fully ready, the new campus will accommodate all teams currently working in different locations in Pune.

Through this investment, Barclays will be creating new jobs, promoting the UK-India trade corridor, and playing a key role in the Indian Government’s Make in India initiative. Co-locating our teams will enable us to become more agile in our response to change and create ecosystems that will transform the way we work and do business. The dynamic, digitally enabled work environment that we create will accelerate productivity improvements and support strong working cultures aligned to our values.

Additionally, we have scaled up our operations in Chennai, with taking up of two extra floors at the existing site at DLF IT Park.

We have ambitious plans to create truly unique workplaces across locations in India, with the latest technology and a vibrant work environment. These investments and commitment represent an important milestone for our organisation in India and take us closer to our mission to build a great place to work.
