CLARK FREEPORT -- A top official of an Australian-based professional outsourcing firm here disclosed their company's plan to 5,000 more workers in the next five years to beef up its current force of 200.

Aimee Engelmann, chief executive officer of Beepo, said the company plans to hire 1,000 personnel every year to help fill demand.

Investing close to AU$ 400,000 (approximately P13.2-million) in its operations in Clark, Beepo had also increased its personnel to 200 as of October this year from only 15 when the company started operations in April 2014.

"We have a long-term vision to grow and remain in the area (Clark)," said Engelmann during her interview at the CDC-sponsored Clark In Action radio program aired over UFM 105.5 and simulcast at the local cable channel in Angeles City.

"I could see an opportunity to combine the fantastic talents here in the Philippines and pair it up with Australian businesses," Engelmann added.

The top executive of Beepo also said their company and the state-run firm are working together to invite other Australian firms to invest in Clark.

"We've been working together to find those clients who wants to invest long-term in the Philippines, " Engelmann said.
