In 2020, the first year of the Covid, the Paris-based planemaker announced plans to cut up to 15,000 jobs, including 1,700 in the UK.
Arond 7,000 new posts will be created through the drive, with recruits added around its European network, focused on France, Germany and Spain.
“The new hires will contribute to Airbus’ pioneering role in sustainable aerospace, while also contributing to its continued business ramp-up and advancing key transformation projects,” it said in a press release.
A quarter of the new jobs will focus on decarbonisation, digital transformation, software engineering and cyber technology, while a third will be allocated to graduates.
“Airbus demonstrated its resilience throughout the COVID-19 crisis and is now very well positioned for the next challenges,” commented chief human resources officer Thierry Baril.
