The Orange Group subsidiary helps accelerate Morocco’s digital transformation and pursues its development policy, relying on the highly qualified skills of its teams in Casablanca and Rabat.
A year after announcing the creation of its 2nd service centre in Morocco - a project which would see 180 new highly skilled jobs created, including 89% telecom and IT engineers and 40% female engineers - Sofrecom reaffirms its ambition in Morocco to support the digital transformation projects of its customers in Morocco, in France and on the African continent as a whole. To date, 180 new highly skilled jobs have been created: 89% of these positions are IT and telecom engineer posts.
The new Sofrecom centre in fact marks the company’s desire to strengthen its activities in Morocco and contribute towards employment development.
To fill these new technical and managerial positions, Sofrecom drew upon a pool of Moroccan skills from the Kingdom’s Grandes Écoles and Universities, with which it has forged partnerships over several years. Thus, there are now over 180 highly skilled designers, developers, consultants, architects, and managers who design, develop, and deliver several different projects relating to Orange’s digital transformation.
The first Orange Group entity to receive the diversity label, this new centre demonstrates Sofrecom’s commitment to diversity and inclusion: 40% of its engineers are women. Sofrecom has also obtained the professional equality certificate in Morocco.
Sofrecom plays an active role in the Kingdom’s strategic project, Morocco Digital Plan 2020
To mark the occasion, Sofrecom engineers and developers also presented several of their achievements.
