TaskUs Launches New Site “Hiraya” in Las Piñas further strengthening presence in the Philippines

TaskUs, Inc. (Nasdaq: TASK), a leading provider of outsourced digital services and next-generation customer experience for the world’s most innovative companies, today announced the launch of its new site, Hiraya, in Las Piñas City.

The new site further strengthens TaskUs’ presence in the Philippines and supports the growing global demand for outsourced digital services. Hiraya is positioned to be a highly versatile, multilingual operations center. Teammates at Hiraya will support global customers through expertise across multiple work types, including Customer Service, Sales, Technical Support, Non-Voice Operations, and Content Moderation. At the moment, the site houses 700 teammates, which is expected to grow to 1500 by the end of 2025.

“One of the key decision criteria in choosing Las Piñas City as the location for our new site was our ‘People-First’ ethos,” said Dean Van Ormer, Senior Vice President for Southeast Asia at TaskUs. “Eighty percent (80%) of our Alabang-area teammates reside in the city or its immediate vicinity, and with access to major thoroughfares, proximity to Metro Manila, and the upcoming LRT-1 extension line, this site will eliminate lengthy commute times. Plus, with 14 colleges and universities nearby, our investment here will provide employment opportunities to a highly educated talent pool.”

The site’s name, Hiraya, is derived from the Filipino word that means the fulfilment of hopes and dreams. “True to its name, Hiraya is the manifestation of our vision of a workspace where our teammates are not only excited to come every day but can also build their careers,” said Al Sese, Vice President of Operations at TaskUs. “Hiraya is our first site with a Filipino theme, seamlessly combining traditional design elements with modern facilities, including a day care center, dedicated rooms for new mothers, 24/7 access to clinics, areas for sessions with wellness and resiliency coaches, a gym, and a cafeteria.”

This year marks the 17th anniversary of TaskUs, which began in a single-room office in Cavite in 2008. The Philippines remains the company’s largest operations base, with more than 35,000 teammates across 11 sites. TaskUs has been recognized as a Great Place to Work in the Philippines for three consecutive years and has also earned the exclusive Platinum Reaccreditation from Investors in People (IIP).
