Description

Rimac Technology, a Croatian manufacturer of electric vehicle components, announced the creation of 150 new jobs at its Rimac Campus facility in Kerestinec, near Zagreb, following the launch of serial production of high-voltage battery systems for BMW electric vehicles.

Around 200 employees are already engaged on the BMW-related projects in Croatia, and the additional recruitment is planned by the end of 2026 to support expanded production activities. The job creation is linked to the company's business expansion and increasing demand from global automotive manufacturers.

Production takes place at the Rimac Campus, where battery-system manufacturing occupies a substantial share of the facility’s capacity. Rimac Technology currently already employs around 1,200 workers, while the wider Rimac Group more than 2,000 people.
