The position will ultimately operate as a service organization that supports the three PARPRO Mexico business units (electrical, metal, and SMT). In the fourth quarter of 2018, PARPRO expanded to a larger facility in Mexico, allowing for new capabilities and the creation of new positions in a a wide range of roles, from advanced design and engineering, to manufacturing, operations and customer support. PARPRO CEO Thomas Sparrvik said, “Over the past year, we have invested heavily in facilities, equipment and people, and this new job creation is a perfect example of PARPRO’s tremendous growth. In just a few years, we have grown from 600 employees, and will be on track to employ 800+ by year end. These new positions are primarily located in Mexico, but we are also looking for skilled people for other core functions across all of our locations.”
