After RATP, it is now Transilien SNCF’s turn to announce a major recruitment plan in Île-de-France.
900: this is the number of people Transilien SNCF plans to hire in 2023. The greatest need is for drivers, with 400 positions available in that sector. But Transilien is also looking for 200 customer service agents at stations, 150 maintenance technicians, as well as 40 production agents. The remaining 110 positions target managerial profiles and engineers. A communication campaign will take place in March and April to raise awareness of the job opportunities among as many people as possible. Transilien SNCF also plans to organize two recruitment forums during the year.
Recruitments to offset the negative effects of the health crisis
This campaign follows last year’s, which allowed the hiring of around 770 people (instead of the initial plan of 600). According to the operator itself, it is a response“to the reduced recruitment of conductors due to the health crisis and lockdowns”. But Transilien SNCF is also recruiting to prepare for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and the extension of the RER E to the west. The operator additionally needs additional staff to continue renewing its rolling stock, which requires “strong technical skills”.
The job offers from Transilien SNCF can be viewed on this website. New employees seeking accommodation will be offered specific support. The operator commits to providing them with housing near their workplace within 4 months. Future train drivers will undergo a 12-month training program. For tram driving, training lasts 4 months.
