Weidmüller, a German manufacturer of electronic goods, has announced plans to create 350 new jobs in 2015 across its European workforce. The company has recently opened a new production plant in Slovenia and plans to open a further one in Romania in 2015. Weidmüller currently employs around 4,800 people worldwide, just under half of which are located in Germany. The new announced round of job creation is on top of 200 additional employees who were hired in 2014, when around 150 new jobs had been created in Romania and just under 40 new employees hired in Germany.
