Sabre Uruguay –  15 Years of Growth and Evolution

The leading technology provider at the center of the business of travel celebrates the fifteenth anniversary of its global center in Montevideo


Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR), the leading technology provider to the global travel industry, recently celebrated the fifteenth anniversary of its global center located in Montevideo, Uruguay. The center currently employs over 950 team members and is a valuable resource and strategic global location for Sabre. In May 2004, Sabre arrived in Uruguay with the objective of consolidating its customer care and delivery functions into a single location to achieve significant operational efficiency improvements. Sabre was attracted to Uruguay’s high-quality technical talent and the opportunity to offer its customers a consistent, world-class customer support experience globally.  The center opened with a team of 120 professionals performing three job functions. Quickly, the Sabre Montevideo team showed their commitment and ability to perform other tasks, which motivated the company to expand its presence and leverage additional skill sets. “The Montevideo team’s high level of commitment and desire for professional development encouraged us to gradually move more job functions and roles of increasing sophistication to this location”, said Sean Menke, Sabre President and CEO. “The global center soon became and continues to be a valuable asset to Sabre and a significant component in our long-term strategy”. Today, the center has almost 1000 talented professionals performing over 200 diverse job functions including technology, data analytics and business intelligence, customer support, training, consulting, product marketing, corporate communications, financial and human resource services.  Additionally, since 2017, the Montevideo office has served as Sabre’s commercial headquarters for the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region. “Over the past 15 years, we have added job functions that require increasingly advanced knowledge and expertise, to accompany the evolution and sophistication of the technology developed by Sabre”, said Guillermo Prosper, Sabre Montevideo Site Leader. “This has allowed us to offer our Uruguayan team members the chance to advance their careers, with opportunities for professional growth, both locally and globally”. From the moment Sabre arrived in Uruguay, it became a leading local employer. The company works to sustain a healthy corporate culture including employee well-being and corporate responsibility. “Our culture and our people have guided these first 15 years of growth and evolution and will undoubtedly guide us into the future as we continue to successfully support Sabre’s strategy in the years to come”, added Guillermo.
