Japanese commercial vehicle manufacturer Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (MFTBC) has launched its largest-ever global “mid-career” recruitment campaign, involving countries in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. The company, a majority-owned subsidiary of Germany’s Daimler Truck AG, is looking to recruit mainly professional staff ahead of its planned merger with Hino Motors.
MFTBC is 89.29%-owned by Daimler Truck AG, with the remaining 10.71% of its shares held by various Mitsubishi group companies. The merger with Hino is scheduled to be formally completed at the end of the current fiscal year, in March 2026.
MFTBC confirmed that more than 300 new permanent positions have become available at its operations in Japan, the United Arab Emirates and Portugal, in the areas of research and development (R&D), supply chain and quality management, procurement, international sales and aftersales, IT, finance, legal and compliance, and human resources.
The truck-maker said that it aims to strengthen the Fuso brand ahead of the company’s merger with Hino, with more jobs expected to be created globally after the merger is completed, as the global commercial vehicle industry tackles the challenges associated with CASE technology trends and driver shortages.
MFTBC said it has a diverse global workforce, with staff of more than 65 different nationalities employed in approximately 170 markets worldwide. The company also claims to be the first automaker in Japan to introduce remote working, in 2014, and currently offers employees in Japan the option of “flex time” and remote working.
