Dusseldorf After the announcement of a special fund for the Bundeswehr, Germany’s armaments companies are massively recruiting. This is the result of inquiries from the Handelsblatt to the top companies in the industry.
According to this, around 1,000 new jobs are to be created at the Düsseldorf tank manufacturer Rheinmetall by the end of the year. The military and aerospace division of Airbus (“Defence & Space”) plans to create almost 600 additional jobs.
