With the recovery from the Corona crisis, Lufthansa is again hiring more and more people. The group has already “brought on board” several thousand employees in the current year, Lufthansa announced on Monday. The company is planning a total of 20,000 new hires in Europe. A spokesman said some of those 20,000 jobs will be new jobs, while some will be “replacing employees who have left us.”

Lufthansa cut more than 30,000 jobs during the Corona crisis. She negotiated a rescue package with the federal government, and all state aid has now been repaid. As of the end of September, the airline had around 108,000 employees worldwide.

People are currently being sought in product-related and service-oriented areas at the Frankfurt, Munich, Zurich, Vienna and Brussels locations as well as at the Hamburg technical base and at the Eurowings Group locations, as Lufthansa explained. The focus is particularly on technicians, IT specialists, lawyers, pilots and flight attendants; Lufthansa also offers a variety of apprenticeships and dual study programs.
