From first hire to a functioning India organisation.
A GCC is not a recruitment project. It is a new operating capability that has to be designed, launched and given enough momentum to become part of your company.
Define what you are building.
Before recruiting begins, we establish what the India operation needs to become — not just which vacancies need to be filled.
Functions & roles
Initial organisation structure, hiring priorities and future scale.
Compensation & location
Market-aligned compensation and the Indian talent market that best fits your roles.
Workplace & operating responsibilities
Where the team works, what infrastructure it needs and who owns which operating responsibilities.
Entity, employment & governance
The employment model, compliance foundations and governance rhythm from launch.
Build the components in parallel.
Once the blueprint is clear, specialist workstreams move together under one operating plan.
Talent — Careernet
Talent mapping, sourcing, assessment and hiring.
Workplace — IndiQube
Location, managed workspace, fit-out, IT readiness and facilities.
People & Compliance — JCSS Global
Entity support, payroll, benefits and compliance infrastructure.
Operations — Trainedge
Operating coordination, governance, processes, reporting and scale.
Keep the initiative moving.
New operations lose time in the spaces between providers: delayed decisions, unclear ownership, dependencies and issues nobody fully owns. Trainedge coordinates the initiative and keeps the workstreams moving toward launch.
Startup energy. Operating discipline.
Launch the organisation — not just the employees.
Before a team can operate effectively, the environment around it needs to be ready.
People
Onboarding, policies and engagement.
Workplace
Workspace, IT and access.
Security
Controls, data and devices.
Governance
HQ cadence, reporting and KPIs.
Processes
SOPs, workflows and escalation.
Management
Performance, support and local coordination.
Operate the India environment.
Once the centre is live, Trainedge manages the agreed local operating layer while your functional leaders continue to manage what the team does.
Scale the operating model with the team.
The management structure required by a 12-person operation is different from one required at 50 or 100. Processes, reporting, leadership and governance evolve with the organisation.
12
Launch
First team, early culture and core processes.
25
Stabilise
Operating rhythm, formal HR and performance processes.
50
Scale
Local leadership, functional managers and stronger governance.
100
Mature
A mature India organisation with strategic capability.
Choose your long-term path.
Continue with Trainedge as your Managed GCC operating partner, or move toward client ownership through Build-Operate-Transfer.
Managed GCC
Trainedge remains the long-term India operating partner while you retain functional ownership.
Build • Operate • Transfer
We build and operate the GCC until agreed readiness conditions are met, then transition the agreed scope to your ownership.
Target launch timing
For managed/ready workspace engagements, our target is first hires in approximately 2–4 weeks and an initial 10–15-person team in approximately 6–8 weeks, subject to engagement-specific dependencies.
Let’s design your India GCC.
Start with the capability you need, the first roles you want to hire and where you want the India organisation to go.
