Eve Power Hungary Kft. announced a major 400‑person workforce expansion and will launch a regional recruitment campaign in early 2026 in Debrecen and surrounding towns. The company aims to hire primarily from the local Hungarian labour market to support the ramp‑up of its new Debrecen battery cell factory, which will supply the BMW Group Plant Debrecen.
The company’s construction of the 450,000 m² plant on 45 hectares is progressing as planned, and several operational areas are now expanding to prepare for production start and long‑term stable operation. Eve Power emphasises building a sustainable, future‑proof presence aligned with Debrecen’s rapidly growing industrial ecosystem.
The recruitment campaign—starting at the end of January—will focus on technicians, engineers, administrative staff, and other support roles. Applications are accepted via the company’s career site, LinkedIn, and major job portals.
Company leaders highlighted strong regional interest and the appeal of working for a technologically advanced, internationally backed company. Managing Director Zhang Huanting stressed the goal of creating a stable, predictable operation in Debrecen, while HR Director Tom Rong noted that many local candidates are actively seeking opportunities in the fast‑growing battery industry.
Eve Power is backed by EVE Energy, described as a stable, people‑focused international company with strong R&D culture, long‑term career paths, and global opportunities. The company positions itself not just as an employer but as a partner in building the future.
The battery industry has expanded rapidly in Hungary and Eastern Hungary in recent years, and Eve Power’s investment contributes to the region’s economic strength and technological advancement. Strengthening local employment is a key long‑term priority for the company.
According to Ádám Kovács, head of public and government relations, 2026 will focus on partnerships that create economic value, career opportunities for young people, and tangible benefits for local communities.
Eve Power regularly participates in job fairs and career events, and its 2026 priorities include workforce expansion, training programs, and operational preparation. Open positions are available on the company’s career page, LinkedIn, and major job portals.
