Aerospace companies looking to fill 1,000 jobs in Singapore over next two years
Aerospace companies in Singapore are planning to hire 1,000 people over the next two years, as the sector gears up for new growth opportunities in digital services, autonomous technology and sustainability. One company that recently embarked on a recruitment drive is American aerospace manufacturer Pratt & Whitney, which plans to add 250 more employees to its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) operations in Singapore by the end of this year.
Manpower Minister Dr Tan See Leng said, “Their cutting-edge aerospace technology capabilities will keep Singapore and our workers on the forefront of the global MRO industry.”
Business jet manufacturer Bombardier is looking to fill more than 90 positions as it aims to quadruple its existing footprint in Singapore, while engine-maker GE Aviation is also on the hunt for talent for 200 positions this year. Among local players, Singapore Technologies (ST) Engineering is looking to recruit up to 200 aviation professionals by next year, while Singapore Aero Engine Services is hiring for 170 vacancies to support the growth of its operations.
