Bratislava 1. 6. 2023 – In the heart of Eastern Slovakia, 500 IT specialists are already employed in the Fpt Slovakia company, which grows on the strong roots of the stable ground of the global corporation Fpt Software. Thanks to the continual growth and development of competences and offered services, we also widen the portfolio of partnerships on the international market and recruit qualified experts. After successful years of the subsidiary in Košice office, we are expanding our field of activity to Western Slovakia, where we are opening a new office in the modern premises of the Nivy Tower Business Centre.

Our company, Fpt Slovakia, as a stable partner for a broad spectrum of customers from all around the world, identified the significant potential of people in the region. It’s the missing part of the new FPT’s road to offer high above-standard services to customers. Another aspect of the new office opening is the employees’ desire to meet in person, as they work in a hybrid work model from Western Slovakia. Thanks to meetings over coffee and inspiring discussions in a non-formal environment, the fulfilled wish of the employees to develop even more intensive mutual relationships at the workplace will support the better functioning of the company. 

Fpt Slovakia offers IT services for customers from various fields, such as utility services, healthcare, multimedia, or energy segment, the automobile industry, and e-shop sale. We work with the newest technology, and thanks to this fact, the spectrum of our competences is broad and varied.

„We are the leaders in the field of implementation and maintenance of SAP solution. We work with design, development, and maintenance of software, independent testing, and ensuring the quality of IT services within the energy sector. We are also partners for innovative solutions in the fields of E-mobility, Smart Home, or Renewables,” said the Managing Director of the company Coi Tran.

We are intensively looking for more specialists in project and support activities in many fields, as our portfolio is constantly growing. We focus on fast-developing technologies such as Google Cloud Platform, ServiceNow, development of apps for the management of green energy, Sharepoint, Java, Autosar, BTP, and the implementation of SAP S/4 Hana. Very significant is also the cloud field, in which we are growing greatly. We are looking for specialists from a wide spectrum, such as consultants, service managers, business analysts, frontend and backend developers, administrators, infrastructure specialists, Fiori developers, and many other experts, who are not afraid of new challenges and possibilities for further development in special projects.

The originality of the project lies in the innovative idea, thanks to which the company Fpt Slovakia recruited 300 brand ambassadors in its employees, which brought the wished-for results.

The Fpt Slovakia company needed to grow significantly and to provide required services to the customers. Despite the small number of recruiters and low budget, the company proved, that changing the thinking and point of view is enough for the success to come. The campaign IT Calls home has changed the previous understanding and strategy of recruiting new employees and experts from IT sector.

“With the help of middle and upper management, as well as all with the help of all the employee we created a concept, which cleverly helped us to hire 2-times more qualified employees. Our colleagues got together and worked with enthusiasm to spread positive image about our company,“ explains HR manager Lucia Tomková.

One of the substantial ingredients, which created the right HR cocktail, was the strengthening of the campaign with the new concept #polopate.

Press release

We desire to inspire and forward the chain of good deeds

We desire to inspire and forward the chain of good deeds

Help someone who can't help themselves. Changing their destiny, inspiring others and forwarding good is of great importance. It shapes not only the individual, but also us as a community.

At Fpt Slovakia, we regularly cooperate with various organizations. We help where people have lost the most important thing they have, their home, their parents, their sense of security. We support the spread of first aid awareness among young children. We work with organizations that care for children with intellectual, sensory and physical disabilities.

ÚSMEV AKO DAR

Our most intensive and longest cooperation is connected with the organization Úsmev ako dar, with which we have been cooperating for more than 10 years. Its trigger was a stimulus from management and a willingness to support a good idea. We saw an example from abroad, the activities of our "parent" company, and we wanted to get involved. Change the thinking of our colleagues, the nature of our events. We started in Dorka (Center for children and family) and helped with the construction of a playground.

The volunteering we do within the company is a great idea. Meaningful spending time combined with fun with colleagues and building team spirit in a joint activity, supplemented by selfless help to those who need it most, is a priceless feeling“, says Katka, an active participant in volunteer activities at Fpt Slovakia.

The activity was a success not only for our colleagues, we also received the VIA BONA award thanks to it. They appreciated our original idea - to change the character of teambuilding activities from a sports day to a volunteer day.

With times as well as the needs of the organization changing, we too are adjusting our activities and collaboration with "Úsmev" people. In addition to direct assistance, we financially support the construction of social rental housing, we help with the return of children to school, with the purchase of food, books, gifts under the Christmas tree. Our colleagues, even in managerial positions, often do not hesitate to "get dirty" and personally help with the construction of help centers.

"Fpt is about people. About the people we can always turn to, whether with predictable events - such as the beginning of the school year, which in this pandemic period tends to be even more financially demanding, especially for poor families. Fpt is a team of people where we can knock on doors extraordinarily if the story of a man who needs help appears. It is a team of people who do not hesitate to find a solution for a person, family or child. This is Fpt and this is very rare nowadays,"describes the cooperation Radoslav Dráb, chairman of the Košice branch of the organization Úsmev ako dar.

OUR PLANS

In a few days, 44 children from the ZEM DETÍ organization will move to the summer camp, which we have supported financially. But summer will be quickly over, so we are already thinking together with the "Úsmev" people about how to help children with their return to school as part of our internal project „Back to school“.

In September, also thanks to our grant program implemented in cooperation with the Red Cross, children at six Košice primary schools will be educated in the provision of first aid in an experiential way.

We plan to continue to support organizations with which we have long-term cooperation, but of course also to listen to our colleagues and direct help to where it is most needed.

We desire to continue to inspire, ignite hearts and forward the chain of good deeds.

 „Start Small Dream Big“.
