Invisors chooses Glasgow for first European office

Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Invisors opened its new office on Queen Street after working closely with a number of local partner organisations, including Invest Glasgow, Scottish Development International (SDI) and Skills Development Scotland (SDS).

Since its opening, Invisors has hired approximately 20 employees across the UK, half of whom based are in the firm’s Glasgow office. The company is targeting incremental growth in employee numbers as it develops its presence in Europe.  

Matt Smith, EMEA Operations Lead at Invisors, said:

I’m based in the Glasgow area, so was pleased that our due diligence indicated that Glasgow would be a strong location for our plans.  We have seen a lot of value so far in the local talent we have attracted and the support we have received from local partners.

The company recently passed a major milestone after it received partnership status from Workday to deliver Workday deployments in the United Kingdom and Ireland. This expansion recognises Invisors’ commitment to helping European companies migrate their HR and financial systems to Workday and provide ongoing support and optimisation once live.

This is a fantastic recognition from Workday on the team we have built here in less than a year and outlines our commitment to Workday globally. We are excited to work closely with Workday helping customers here in the United Kingdom and Ireland adopt the best-in-class applications for finance, HR, and more, says Matt Lawrence, EMEA Commercial Lead at Invisors. 

The company’s global team has successfully completed more than 200 Workday client engagements, with recognitions by Fortune's Great Place to Work, Inc. Magazine's Best Workplaces, and Inc. Magazine's 5,000 Fastest-Growing Private Companies.
