The French group Thalès, world leader in high defense technologies, has just announced that it will recruit 9,000 people in 2026, including 3,300 in France - half of which will be in its defense activities.

The arms sector is doing well, and even better and better since February 2022 and the large-scale invasion of Ukraine. Since then, France has entered a phase of accelerated rearmament, from defense behemoths to smaller companies.

The KNDS company has thus tripled its production rates, going from two Caesar cannons per month in 2022 to six in 2024.

For its part, France Travail announced the creation of a center dedicated to the defense industry, a sector where 10,000 positions remain to be filled.
