To better manage its Human Resources and Finance Services, BAE Systems, Inc. will create a service center in the Charlotte, North Carolina, area during 2011.
“The consolidation of all of our company-wide processes and services for Human Resources and Finance into one shared services center is essential to improving performance, reducing costs and improving competitiveness,” said Linda Hudson, president and CEO of BAE Systems, Inc.
Hudson said Charlotte was selected after a nationwide search for a location with skilled talent, easy access, suitable facilities and an affordable life-style.
The center is anticipated to be operational in the second half of 2011 and will employ approximately 176 employees.
“We appreciate the leadership of Gov. Bev Perdue and other government officials who have worked diligently with us to make this a reality. This is good news for Charlotte and good news for BAE Systems.” Hudson said.
