3,000 tenders offered in the Toulouse Basin

“This will be our 10^th edition in Toulouse, and we have rarely had such a dense offer, we are talking about 3,000 vacancies. These hiring volumes are very substantial and require us to be proactive in terms of solutions” specifies Thierry Abad, Operations Director of Synergie. In addition to these offers, several hundred professionalisation contracts with key integration within one of the companies present will also be offered.

The sector is looking for very diversified profiles. There is obviously a significant need for ‘workers’ such as mechanics, electricians, fitters, turners, boilermakers, etc. But beyond the manufacturing professions, the sector also seeks to recruit quality inspectors, aircraft engineers, buyers and even accountants.

The companies present will offer all types of contracts: temporary, work-study, CDD and obviously the coveted CDI. For Thierry Abad, all job seekers are welcome. “Specific profiles are not sought. There is a need both for people who have no skills in this sector of activity but who wish to integrate it, and for people who already have qualifications, young or old, and who want to position themselves. »

Please note that two round tables will be organized on site from 11 am. One will focus on the role of women in the aviation industry, particularly in the technical professions. The other will concern the opening of this sector to young people from priority neighbourhoods. “The component of vocational training in terms of inclusion is a facilitating and attractive component. We must try to interest as many people as possible in these professions” summarizes the director of operations of Synergie. These roundtables will be led by HR managers, representatives of associations and industry professionals. The appointment is fixed.
