OUR PARTNERS
Since the very beginning of AESC’s journey, Intelligent Employment has been a strategic partner in building their talent acquisition framework from the foundation. As a global leader in advanced EV battery manufacturing, AESC’s success depends on assembling exceptional teams across their three cutting-edge sites in Spain, the UK, and France.
From initial workforce planning to delivering key hires across engineering, operations, and leadership roles, we’ve worked hand-in-hand with AESC to secure the talent necessary to power their ambitious projects and set the standard for excellence in the EV battery industry.
Together, we’ve built more than a workforce—we’ve established a partnership that drives innovation forward.
Founded in Japan in 2007 and headquartered in Yokohama, AESC is a global leader in the development and manufacturing of high-performance batteries for zero-emission electric vehicles (EVs) and energy storage systems. Over the past 14 years, AESC has expanded its manufacturing capabilities across the U.S., U.K., Europe, Japan, and China, serving key markets and leading customers locally.
AESC's advanced technology powers over one million electric vehicles worldwide, providing more than 20 GWh of installed capacity for battery energy systems in over 60 countries. The company is recognised as a partner of choice for leading original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and energy storage providers across North America, Europe, and Asia.
With a diverse and experienced management team leading a global workforce of 12,000, AESC continues to pioneer in mass-produced lithium-ion EV batteries, maintaining a proven safety record with its batteries powering a significant number of electric vehicles on the road today.
WORKING WITH IE
AESC embarked on a bold mission: to establish a European foothold in advanced EV battery manufacturing from scratch. With no prior branding presence or established infrastructure in Europe, the challenge was monumental. Their vision was clear—to create state-of-the-art Gigafactories capable of meeting the growing global demand for sustainable energy solutions while advancing Europe’s leadership in the EV revolution.
This mission came with its hurdles. Operating with limited resources and entering a competitive market, AESC had to move swiftly and strategically.
From securing locations in France, the UK, and Spain to assembling teams of innovators, engineers, and operational experts, every step required precision and collaboration.
We partnered with AESC to overcome the challenges of building Gigafactories in Europe from the ground up, utilising strategic, data-driven, and creative solutions to deliver impactful results. Here’s how we made it happen:
