International SOS opens new Manila office and Assistance Center
International SOS Philippines, the leading global medical and security services company, has unveiled its new Manila headquarters at The Exquadra Tower in Ortigas. The specially designed facility supports the International SOS client-centric approach, helping companies and governments mitigate medical and security risks faced by their employees deployed abroad. This new office and Assistance Center will operate 24/7 and provide fully integrated medical and security services and assistance to clients worldwide. It will also be home to over 300 employees based in the Philippines.
“We are thrilled to inaugurate our new office in the Philippines, a step that mirrors our dedication to expanding our horizons and offering unparalleled services to our clients,” said Steve Weston, general manager for International SOS Philippines. “As we celebrate our 27 years of service in the Philippines, this office signifies not only our presence in this vibrant city but also our commitment to fostering innovation and collaboration among our talented team.”
The Philippines is a key location for International SOS since it is the selected base of many client organizations operating in Southeast Asia. It is also a strategic location to recruit a diverse and skilled pool of specialists as an increasing number of medical and security teams are needed to help client businesses assess and manage the risks that their global workforce faces.
“We are investing in this new global office and assistance center to further extend our ability to proactively manage the risks faced by our clients’ globally deployed and local employees. Over the years, we have built and developed our local capabilities coming from experience operating our 24/7 Manila Assistance Center. This is one of the 27 Assistance Centers around the world that is operated by our talented healthcare and security professionals, ready to support and address the health and security concerns of our clients,” said Weston.
International SOS’ Manila Assistance Center coordinatesroutine medical, security, and travel advice services across time zones and regions. It provides integrated medical and security crisis response for clients impacted by political unrest, natural disasters, or pandemics. The Philippine team is highly experienced in carrying out thousands of interventions and evacuations yearly.
