"Following the success of our recruitment last year, we will hire over 13,000 employees again in 2023. We call on talented individuals from all over the world to join us in our journey to make sustainable aerospace a reality and to help us build a better, more diverse and inclusive workplace for all our employees.”

This new recruitment drive will be worldwide, with an emphasis on technical and manufacturing profiles, as well as acquisition of new skills supporting the company's long term vision, in areas such as new energies, cyber and digital.

Over 9,000 of these posts will be in Europe and the rest throughout our global network. A third of the total recruitment will be allocated to recent graduates.

Airbus currently employs more than 130,000 people across its businesses worldwide. Airbus was recently awarded Top Employers certification in Europe, North America and Asia Pacific by the Top Employers Institute, a global independent authority on recognising excellence in people management and HR policies.
