Software firm brings jobs after move to Coventry
A GLOBAL software business is creating jobs following the opening of its regional development hub in Coventry.
Pervacio, which is headquartered in the USA, specialises in containing the cost of mobile phone and electronic device supply chain management. The company is expanding its activities in the UK and the new office in Electric Wharf provides a key operations base for its engineers and software architects as well as other core business and client support functions.
The company has already taken on additional engineering support staff to meet the growing demand for its services, and is now actively recruiting for up to five new posts, including software developers and programmers.
Jason Saunt, Pervacio’s global head of marketing, said: “We have clients throughout the country so, having decided to establish a regional development hub in the UK, a central location was important. Coventry’s proximity to Birmingham and good transport links, makes it the ideal base for us.
“There are also key advantages to being based in an area renowned for creativity, technology and innovation, while the fact that some of the UK’s top universities are on the doorstep will help us tap into the local graduate talent pool.”
The new office is set to enhance the company’s ability to build partnerships with carriers, device manufacturers, retailers and insurance underwriters in the UK, it will also support the development of customised, value added solutions for clients located throughout Europe.
In addition to the United States, Pervacio also operates in Canada, Hungary, India, Japan, Finland and Australia. The opening of the UK development hub marks the latest phase in its strategic expansion and follows the launch of a similar facility in Finland.
Pervacio has also committed to major investment in India, which has seen the hub serving the EMEA/Asia Pacific region triple in size along with the creation of a Global Innovation Centre.
