WB Group, a Polish producer of electronic battlefield support systems, will recruit 200 people in the next two years in Skarżysko-Kamienna. The company has announced its plans to hire 50 people in 2022 and 150 more in 2023.
The reason behind this business expansion is the establishment of a new production centre, which will manufacture drones for civil and combat use. WB Group was awarded the Gladius programme contract for the Polish Army, worth PLN 2 billion, and that deliveries were already beginning. The centre is expected to start its activities within the next three months.
WB group was estabilished in 2011 and currently employs 1,200 people globally, over half of which are engineers and R&D staff.
