Expert R&d Matériaux

Automotive Cells Company (ACC) is a joint venture created in the summer of 2020 and backed by Stellantis, Mercedes-Benz and Saft (a subsidiary of TotalEnergies). Our ambition is to produce electric batteries at the highest technological level while developing cleaner mobility that is accessible to as many people as possible.

We are proud to manufacture, in our Gigafactory in Billy-Berclau, the batteries that already equip several electric vehicles available on the market (PEUGEOT E-3008 and E-5008, Opel Grandland, and soon the DS N°8, the Citroën C5 AIrCross and the new Jeep Compass).

To bring this ambition to life, we're looking for skilled, agile people in all areas linked to running a factory: Production, Maintenance, Quality, Engineering, HSES... to join our Gigafactory in Billy-Berclau (Hauts de France), our Industrial Center of Industrial Excellence in Nersac (Angoulême) and our R&D center in Bruges (Bordeaux).
