The IT and customer experience business scene is booming in Iloilo and we want to be part of its growth as we provide more employment opportunities for residents in Iloilo and surrounding cities. We look forward to building a strong team of professionals who will provide exceptional support to our growing list of clients in the areas of digital customer care, IT, and technical support,” said Jonabee Catura, TELUS Iloilo City Site Lead.

The TELUS Iloilo City world-class workplace is designed to celebrate Ilonggo culture, taking design inspiration from Iloilo’s rich heritage, famous landmarks, treasured historical buildings, the region’s natural scenery and even local cuisine. The new site’s design features colorful murals by local artists that were created to inspire team productivity through striking Ilonggo creativity.
“Our new TELUS Iloilo City delivery center was a uniquely exciting project to design and conceptualize. Knowing how the office becomes a second home to our team members, it was important that the design of our new workplace reflects the amazing culture of our host city, the work culture that we encourage at TELUS International Philippines, as well as our values as a company. The unique experience of working at TELUS Iloilo City is something we want each member of our team to feel,” explained Pia Zapata, TELUS International Philippines Facilities Director. The new workplace is thoughtfully designed to encourage collaboration and creativity, from the site’s workstations to the themed meeting and training rooms, to collaboration areas and the site’s cafeteria. The work of local artists adorns TELUS Iloilo City’s themed meeting rooms, where murals of local artistic landmarks and scenery add to the energy of the collaboration spaces where team members and clients come together.
