The 3D printing industry is definitely booming; thanks in no small part to government subsidies, technological progress and, of course, the inherent benefits of additive manufacturing, not to mention all of the hype. We’ve recently reported on a number of industrial 3D printer manufacturers who have begun expanding their operations, building new facilities in order to meet the increasing demand for the technology. Among them was the UK’s only metal 3D printer maker, Renishaw, which recently opened a facility in India and a Chinese headquarters in Shanghai. As these businesses grow, they’ll not only need buildings, but new workers and Renishaw has begun recruiting nationwide in the UK.
Renishaw currently has eleven positions open in their Additive Manufacturing Products Division (AMPD) on Whitebridge Park in Stone, with over 70 other positions available in their other UK locations in Gloucestershire, Scotland and South Wales. At the AMPD, the company is looking for industrial additive manufacturing machine operators, technicians, and engineers with specialized skills. Additionally, Renishaw is seeking out recent graduates and experienced professionals.
The company’s recruitment efforts are only the most recent, as the company continues to experience growth with the industry. In the past five years, Renishaw’s staff has doubled, with 3500 employees around the world, and, hiring 68 graduates this year, there were four times the applicants to the company than in 2011.
