The Center of Excellence was officially inaugurated one year ago, in Bucharest-based U•Center office building.
The office expansion is part of long-term development plans which include hiring 500 employees in five years, based on a total investment of around EUR100 million during that interval.
The company has leased one more floor spanning 4000 square meters and contributing to the overall office space, which now encompasses a total area of 8000 sqm across two levels. The second floor follows the same design principles as the first, aiming to create a flexible and inclusive workplace experience.
Booking Holding now has 300 employees at its center in Bucharest, including through the company’s partnership with Infosys to augment Booking Holdings badged employees.
New capabilities have also been added in existing and new areas, including Security & Fraud, Application Development, Marketing, Procurement, IT End User Support, Global Business Services, Finance Transformation, Data Analytics, and Program Management Office.
The design for the office’s second floor, which was developed by Gensler, showcases Romania’s main regions (Dobrogea, Moldova, Muntenia, Oltenia, and Transylvania), celebrating their rich heritage through vibrant colors and traditional textiles.
“We are pleased to be growing our presence in Romania. As our future plans are to reach 500 colleagues within 5 years from opening, we have expanded our space to accommodate the new roles that have already joined our teams and those that will follow in the coming period,” said Anca Fotache, General Manager, Booking Holdings Romania.
