Description
Following their announcement to recruit 35 people earlier this year, the management of Renault has announced that they will recruit an additional 90 employees on permanent employment contracts and 40 on fixed-term contracts (over 6 months) by the end of 2016. The company will begin production of their new car 'Alpine' in 2017 and has created these jobs in relation to its manufacture. However, the car manufacturing company will recruit qualified workers to fill positions in support services, management, manufacturing, quality control, logistics, as well as technicians and engineers. The company has created an internal training centre to train its new employees to be able to build “premium” segment cars. The site currently employs about 280 people on permanent contracts.
