The Bosch Group, a German investment, is one of the biggest investors in Romania’s automotive industry, with both its manufacturing sites and engineering centre having seen steady development over the years. Business Review talked to Mihai Boldijar, the General Manager of Robert Bosch S.R.L. and the representative of the Bosch Group in Romania, Vice-president with regional responsibilities to get some insight into the company’s plans.
”Romania is a strategic market for the Bosch Group, which invested approximately EUR 700 million here between 2005 and 2021. Last year alone we made investments that reached EUR 83 million, mainly in the development of our production units in Cluj and Blaj. In parallel, we recorded encouraging financial results, which allowed us to continue with the business development process. The successful outcome was made possible by the extraordinary engagement and resilience of our associates, as together we’ve managed to overcome many major challenges”, said Mihai Boldijar.
”We plan to continue our investment and development plans in 2023, as our commitment to Romania is very strong. At the moment, we have hundreds of open positions within our organisation and we want to expand our teams with professionals who adhere to the values of the Bosch Group. We also continue to support young people who are just starting out their careers with over 1,000 opportunities available for juniors, young graduates, and students. We will also continue our partnerships with the top universities in the country. Last but not least, there will be further development in our production units and engineering centre”, added Mihai Boldijar.
