A multinational technology company is the latest business to call Adelaide home with the establishment of its new Australian headquarters in the city, creating 50 positions over the next three years.
Zoho, founded in 1996, employs more than 15,000 people globally and has more than 100 million users across its 55+ business apps, serving more than 700,000 businesses in 150 countries.
The company has offices across the world, with its headquarters in Austin, Texas, and the development head office in Chennai, India.
Minister for Trade and Investment Nick Champion met with representatives from the software giant on his trade mission to India in November. It was the first time a South Australian Trade and Investment Minister had visited the country since 2017.
The Department for Trade and Investment has been providing in-market support to Zoho over the past two years, to develop and grow Australian connections. The company has now moved into new premises at Currie Street with 12 employees and have an additional six employees working remotely across solution engineering, account management, marketing and business development.
Zoho offers software for every major business operation including sales, marketing, customer support, finance, human resources and back-office operations. They are working with several businesses across the state including wineries, healthcare providers, NDIS providers, sporting clubs and energy companies.
Zoho is currently recruiting for roles in its Adelaide office.
As put by Nick Champion
I was fortunate to meet representatives from Zoho when I was in India in November and able to see first-hand, the enormous impact this global company is having when it comes to supporting businesses with their operations.
South Australia’s hi-tech ecosystem is well-placed to provide business opportunities for Zoho to grow here and will give South Australians a pathway into working for a multi-national company that is helping businesses succeed.
I congratulate Zoho on their new office in the heart of the Adelaide and look forward to seeing them succeed.
As put by Rakesh Prabhakar, Regional Manager Australia/New Zealand
Adelaide has proven to be a fantastic central point for Zoho to cater to our customers across the country – from the far reaches of the Kimberley to the western suburbs of Sydney.
South Australia is a great city for our employees to enjoy a healthy and balanced lifestyle, raise their families and still have access to world-class festivals and entertainment.
We’re proud to hire and train up Adelaide locals who have an interest in business and a passion to kickstart a career in technology.
