Luxury sports car manufacturer to create hundreds of new jobs

One of the UK’s (and the world’s) best-known luxury sports car makers is set to create hundreds of new jobs following what the company describes as a “record year”, according to a report in the local business media.

Woking-based McLaren Automotive delivered a total of 1,654 cars last year, which led to the initiation of a second shift at the McLaren Production Centre in Woking. A total of 250 new roles will be created in the production, quality and logistics departments when the second shift starts in February.

McLaren Automotive chief executive Mike Flewitt, who described 2015 as "a year of rapid expansion" for the business, said: "The need to add a second shift in the McLaren Production Centre is another great example of the progress that McLaren Automotive has made in its short history.

"I look forward to receiving the 250 new production team members into the company shortly. All of these developments in 2015 give me a very positive sense of confidence that our product range and long-term business plans are heading in exactly the right direction."
