Alstom, a global leader in smart and sustainable mobility, is to hire 200 new welders for its Česká Lípa site. These new hires are within the 7,500 talents to be recruited worldwide in 2022, in order to respond to its growth. Alstom's North Bohemian site has already 1,100 employees on board today and is looking to expand within the next weeks. Alstom is currently looking for either professional welders or adepts for its welding training courses. There has long been a chronic shortage of welders and welding operators in the Czech Republic, therefore Alstom has established its own welding training facility.
“Qualification training for future welders takes place in Alstom’s training facility at the Česká Lípa production site. Our modern training facility is equipped with state-of-the-art welding technologies, including AI training solutions such as virtual reality. Alstom embraces diversity and inclusion and welcomes applications from all candidates,” explains Kamil Nosál, Alstom Česká Lípa Site Managing Director.
