Airbus Plans To Appoint Over 13K Employees In 2023, The Same Number Of People It Hired In 2022

Airbus SE EADSF EADSY is prepared to hire more than 13,000 people globally in 2023 to support its commercial aircraft ramp-up and meet challenges in defense, space, and helicopters.
Around 7,000 of these will be newly created posts across the company.
This new global hiring drive will emphasize technical and manufacturing profiles and the acquisition of new skills supporting the company's long-term vision in new energies, cyber and digital.

Over 9,000 posts will be in Europe, and the rest will be throughout our global network.
A third of the total recruitment will focus on recent graduates.
Airbus currently employs more than 130,000 people across its businesses worldwide.
"In 2022, we welcomed more than 13,000 new employees within Team Airbus around the world, in a complex environment which tested our resilience and attractiveness as a global employer," said Thierry Baril, Chief Human Resources & Workplace Officer of Airbus. "Following the success of our recruitment last year, we will hire over 13,000 employees again in 2023."
Airbus recently beat Boeing Co's BA annual plane delivery tally for the fourth time in a row.
Airbus' annual deliveries increased by 8% year-on-year in 2022 to 661. Boeing boosted deliveries by 41% to 480 commercial jets.
Last December, Airbus CEO Guillaume Faury said he expects 2023 and 2024 will be positive years for wide-body jet demand.
Faury also said that the competitive impact of the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act, which includes support for alternative fuel, was "a real subject of concern."
Faury remained cautious over supply chain challenges.
Price Action: EADSY shares closed at $32.88 on Thursday.
