The Managed Services Centre of Excellence will be a hub of innovation and service excellence for the Auxilion group, with part of the investment going towards new tools and technologies that will drive increased efficiencies and services innovation.
The provider of IT managed services and solutions has recently secured a new £8m IT managed services contract with a global health and life sciences multinational to be delivered out of the centre in Sheffield. The expanded centre will double the company’s UK capacity and has already created 34 new roles in 2023.
Philip Maguire, CEO, Auxilion (pictured), said, “The investment and expansion in our Centre of Excellence is a significant milestone in delivering on our UK growth strategy. We are committed to continually building the most progressive and innovative IT managed services capabilities in the UK and further afield.
“This isn’t just about expanding our physical footprint but investing in new technologies, processes, training, and development and creating skilled jobs in the region.
“The great thing is it's working. We’ve recently won a significant IT managed services deal that’ll be managed out of Sheffield. This is a global business that could have chosen anywhere in the UK or Europe to have their managed services delivered, and not only did they choose Auxilion, but they chose the North of England.
“This is testament to our team and capabilities but also their recognition of the talent, support infrastructure and potential of Sheffield and the broader region. We’re still on the acquisition trail in the UK, and we’re very excited and optimistic about the future of our UK operation.”
