Sitel clients to enjoy the benefits of high quality customer care provision from new state-of-the-art facility

Sitel, a leading customer care outsourcing provider, is solidifying its nearshore offerings, by announcing it has now expanded operations into Belgrade, Serbia.

A well educated workforce, high national literacy levels and lower costs mean that Serbia is an attractive proposition for organisations new to the region.

“With such a large untapped Balkans talent pool, Serbia is the perfect choice for our latest location. Potential contact centre candidates there not only have high standards of education, but also close cultural affinity with our North American and European customers,” says Tim Schuh, General Manager, Northern EMEA, Sitel. “They have access to those same consumer products, use the same computer and social media tools as those who they’re assisting from overseas. And the wide breadth of languages we can support from Belgrade, which includes English, German, Italian, French and Russian, make it a highly attractive solution for our clients.”

Sitel considered several other locations globally but was impressed by Serbia and specifically, Belgrade as a regional business centre. An educated, multilingual workforce combined with available local talent and first class call centre infrastructure made Belgrade the obvious choice.

“Serbia has many qualities which are similar to our successful sites in Bulgaria and Poland. Sitel is constantly evaluating markets across the world to ensure we leverage available labour pools and infrastructures to provide our clients with the best possible service and Return on Customer Investment” continues Schuh.

Sitel has market leading operations with numerous customer care contact facilities across Europe and the globe. Sitel provides services to many of the biggest and best known brands in the world and is now well placed to accept new clients into Belgrade as it moves forward with projected plans for a state-of-the-art customer care contact centre in the Serbian capital.
