Manufacturing firm creating 40 new jobs

A WELL-known Tyrone firm that manufactures airport ground support equipment (GSE) is seeking to immediately recruit an additional 40 workers.

Mallaghan’s recruitment drive, which will grow the workforce by around 15 per-cent, is in response to an increase in orders for their products from airlines and airports across the world as demand for air travel increases.

Headquartered in Dungannon, Mallaghan is hiring for a variety of roles including automotive electricians, welders, assembly fitters, hydraulic fitters, plasma operators, tube laser operators and spray painters.

Company director, Niall Mallaghan, said, “The Covid-19 pandemic has had a serious impact on aviation but finally, we are seeing the green shoots of recovery with demand for air travel on the up.

“This increase in demand is reflected by an uplift in orders for Mallaghan products which has opened up opportunities for up to 40 positions at our Dungannon site as we deliver product to major airlines and airports right across the world.”

Mallaghan’s products are sold in more than 100 countries across the world.
