Description
Italian private company operating high-speed trains, Nuovo Trasporto Viaggiatori (NTV), is to hire 160 people, mainly in Naples, Rome, Milan and Venice.
The company has recovered from a period of crisis and is to enlarge its train fleet in response to growing demand from passengers. Last December, the short-time working scheme (the so-called 'solidarity contracts') in force at NTV have been interrupted in advance and the company announced the upcoming recruitment.
The open positions are for train drivers, facility operators, hostesses and stewards.
