Mitsubishi-Fuso launches major global hiring campaign

Yahoo7 days ago
Japanese commercial vehicle manufacturer Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (MFTBC) has launched its largest-ever global 'mid-career' recruitment campaign, involving countries in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. The company, a majority-owned subsidiary of Germany's Daimler Truck AG, is looking to recruit mainly professional staff ahead of its planned merger with Hino Motors.
MFTBC is 89.29%-owned by Daimler Truck AG, with the remaining 10.71% of its shares held by various Mitsubishi group companies. The merger with Hino is scheduled to be formally completed at the end of the current fiscal year, in March 2026.
MFTBC confirmed that more than 300 new permanent positions have become available at its operations in Japan, the United Arab Emirates and Portugal, in the areas of research and development (R&D), supply chain and quality management, procurement, international sales and aftersales, IT, finance, legal and compliance, and human resources.
The truck-maker said that it aims to strengthen the Fuso brand ahead of the company's merger with Hino, with more jobs expected to be created globally after the merger is completed, as the global commercial vehicle industry tackles the challenges associated with CASE technology trends and driver shortages.
MFTBC said it has a diverse global workforce, with staff of more than 65 different nationalities employed in approximately 170 markets worldwide. The company also claims to be the first automaker in Japan to introduce remote working, in 2014, and currently offers employees in Japan the option of 'flex time' and remote working.
"Mitsubishi-Fuso launches major global hiring campaign" was originally created and published by Just Auto, a GlobalData owned brand.

Son Heung-min set for Tottenham showdown talks after receiving £15m LAFC offer as South Korean heads into final year of Spurs contract

LAFC make £15m bid for Son Tottenham delay decision until post-Asia tour Captain's presence vital for Spurs' commercial obligations Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? Tottenham received a £15m offer from LAFC for Son earlier this week, and the Lilywhites are seriously weighing up a potential sale this summer, as per transfer guru Fabrizio Romano. However, earlier reports have suggested that they are not expected to sanction any move until after their Asia tour, where Son is seen as a central figure. The South Korean still has a year left on his deal, and Spurs are open to further discussions. THE BIGGER PICTURE Despite a rather horrific Premier League season in which they finished 17th, Son captained Tottenham to a historic Europa League title in 2024-25. The 33-year-old has been a consistent performer over the years, even winning the Golden Boot in 2022. The South Korea international still has a year left on his deal, and Spurs are open to further discussions. An exit would mark the end of a decade-long era in north London. DID YOU KNOW? Son remains one of Tottenham's most popular and marketable players, particularly in Asia, making him crucial to their pre-season plans. Reports suggest Spurs could lose up to 75 per cent of their tour revenue if he doesn't feature, which is the reason the Lilywhites will only decide on his future after the tour. With Thomas Frank open to either outcome, the club must now balance football and commercial interests before making a decision. WHAT NEXT FOR SON? Son is expected to travel and feature in the upcoming pre-season matches in South Korea and Hong Kong. Formal talks about his future will likely resume after the tour concludes. The Black and Gold are keen, but any deal hinges on Son agreeing to a move to the United States and to LAFC, in particular.

CNBC Daily Open: Triple whammy for Tesla

Tesla's going through a bumpy ride. The electric vehicle company on Wednesday reported a second consecutive quarter of declining auto sales. In Europe, Tesla's market share fell for the sixth straight month to 2.8% in June from 3.4% a year ago. The Trump administration's plans to reportedly roll back the U.S.' push for cleaner vehicles will probably hit Tesla further. A $7,500 EV tax credit in the U.S. will expire at the end of September, indirectly raising the cost of Tesla vehicles. Meanwhile, traditional carmakers will no longer need to purchase EV regulatory credits from Tesla — which receives them for free because its vehicles are completely electric — as the Trump administration intends to stop fining traditional carmakers for missing emission standards. That means Tesla will soon lose a source of revenue. They say bad things come in threes. Here's the last. While Tesla's bitcoin holding is currently worth $1.24 billion, according to its investor deck, it could have been worth billions more. In 2022, the company dumped 75% of its bitcoin. The cryptocurrency is trading at roughly $118,000 now. When Tesla sold its holdings, it was trading at around $19,000. If there's any consolation, even though U.S. President Donald Trump's "big beautiful bill" will affect Tesla, Trump said on Thursday it wasn't a targeted measure. "I want Elon, and all businesses within our Country, to THRIVE, in fact, THRIVE like never before!" Whether Trump's sentiments can help pave a smoother road for Tesla, though, is another spars with Powell during Fed visit. The U.S. President went back and forth with the Federal Reserve chair over Trump's claims about cost overruns at the Fed headquarters. But Trump said he doesn't think it's "necessary" to fire Powell. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite close at new records. Both indexes were rose Thursday despite an 8% plunge in Tesla shares. On Friday, Asia-Pacific markets fell. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index led losses as of 1:30 a.m. ET. Intel's second-quarter revenue beats estimates. But the chipmaker reported a net loss of $2.9 billion due to an $800 million impairment charge. Intel's new CEO Lip-Bu Tan also announced big spending cuts in the company's foundry business. India expects "preferential" tariffs from the U.S. That's according to New Delhi's Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal, who told CNBC that negotiations were "progressing extremely well." [PRO] An Indian company bets on weight-loss drugs. Expiring patents in Brazil and India mean that this pharma firm has a rare opportunity to be a first mover in dozens of emerging markets. As Trump visits Scotland, the UK looks to settle some unfinished business U.S. President Donald Trump is due to visit two Trump-owned golf sites in Turnberry and Aberdeen between Friday and Tuesday, as well as one of his new golf courses that's set to open in August. He's also due to have an informal meeting with U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer. The question is where might we see some "give and take" in the U.S.-UK trade deal, Kallum Pickering, chief economist at Peel Hunt, told CNBC on Wednesday.

Ghana Plans Crypto Firm Licensing in Response to Growing Demand: Bloomberg

Ghana is set to begin licensing cryptocurrency platforms in response to a surge in demand for digital assets in the West African country, Bloomberg reported on Thursday. The country's central bank is finalizing a regulatory approval to submit to parliament by September, according to the report, citing an interview with Bank of Ghana Governor Johnson Asiama. The hope is that regulating the crypto sector will help the Ghana capture revenue and better control its fiat currency. The cedi has grown over 40% against the U.S. dollar in 2025, helping it recover from a loss of nearly 20% last year. This volatility has made it difficult for the central bank to manage inflation. The use of cryptocurrency can exacerbate this problem as many agents are making and receiving crypto payments which are not being captured in the country's financial accounts, Asiama added. Around 17.3% of Ghanian adults own cryptocurrency, equivalent to just over 3 million people, according to a June 2024 report by Middle East-based business news firm Zawya. Crypto transactions in Ghana in the 12 months to June 2024 totaled $3 billion out of a total $125 billion for the whole of sub-Saharan Africa, said Del Titus Bawuah, chief executive officer at Web3 Africa Group, according to Bloomberg's report.
