CSC to hire 120 new IT staff in South Australia E-mail

Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC) Australia intends to double the 120 IT services staff it currently has working in South Australia over the next three to five years because of strong demand from the defence and booming natural resources sectors.

In South Australia, CSC has been involved with defence projects since the 1970s, including JORN (Jindalee Over-the Horizon Radar Network), the Submarine Project, Nulka Active Missile Defence, Global Hawk and the Anzac Ship.

CSC’s major commercial clients in South Australia include BHP Billiton and OneSteel. Other clients include Allianz, AMP, BlueScope Steel, Coles, Myer, and Rio Tinto.

The increased staffing announcement comes on the back of the official opening of CSC’s AUD$12 million purpose-built Software Solutions Centre in Mawson Lakes.

Nick Wilkinson, President and CEO of CSC in Australia said:

“CSC’s investment in Mawson Lakes reflects our longstanding commitment to the local economy. We have a 30-year history in South Australia and aim to be an IT employer of choice in the region.”

Mr Wilkinson said the move to the new facility at Mawson Lakes would better position the company to continue delivering results for its diverse client base. “We have built technology and flexibility into the building to allow us to cater for the differing security demands of our clients.”

he opening of the new centre in Mawson Lakes is part of CSC’s national facilities campaign and follows the opening of similar centres at Macquarie Park in Sydney, Coniston Technology Park in the Illawarra and Subiaco in Perth. CSC also plans to open a new campus in Docklands, Melbourne in 2009.
