In 2004, WNS, a pioneering global business process management (BPM) company, strategically expanded its footprint by establishing its first offshore delivery centre outside India in Colombo.
Fast forward 20 years, WNS has evolved into a New York Stock Exchange-listed powerhouse, with over US $ 1.3 billion in annual revenue, 60,000 plus employees worldwide, 65 offices across 13 countries and a solid client base of 600 plus global companies across 10 industries.
Throughout this remarkable journey, WNS Sri Lanka (SL) has played a vital role, contributing significantly to WNS’ consistent and exponential growth.
Today, WNS is a trusted business transformation and services partner to global companies and WNS SL continues to be an integral part of this success story.
