"I am delighted that through RSA we have been able to support Concentrix in their expansion, creating 500 new jobs," said Lena Wilson, Chief Executive, Scottish Enterprise. "The decision to invest in Scotland is testament to the attractiveness of Scotland as a location for international investors, thanks to the skills of our people, a competitive cost base and a well-developed business infrastructure.
