MTC looks to expand workforce further

The Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) has seen its workforce grow by more than 20% in the past year, and now the Coventry-based centre is predicting further growth in 2018, including an increase in the number of apprentices, which currently stands at 147.

Having started 2017 with 502 employees, it closed with 629 – the third successive year it has expanded its workforce by more than 100 employees.

Chief executive Clive Hickman says: “We expect to see our employee and apprentice numbers increase again this year, adding to our world class engineers and those at the start of their careers.

“The MTC has been an exciting and rewarding place to work and positions itself as one the city’s foremost employers, offering a rich diversity of roles in a flourishing and dynamic industry.”
