About Michelin

Michelin is a global tire manufacturer headquartered in Clermont-Ferrand, France, and one of the world's largest tire companies. The group designs, manufactures, and sells tires for every type of vehicle, from bicycles to airplanes, and also publishes travel guides, maps, and restaurant guides. With over 130,000 employees worldwide, Michelin operates industrial and commercial activities in more than 170 countries.

In Spain, Michelin has a significant industrial footprint with several factories and offices, including plants in Aranda de Duero, Valladolid, Vitoria-Gasteiz, and Lasarte-Oria. The company is known for its strong engineering culture, focus on continuous improvement, and offers international professionals opportunities in industrial engineering, manufacturing management, and occupational risk prevention. For international hires, Michelin provides a structured environment with clear career paths, and the Spanish operations are integrated into the group's global manufacturing network, making it a relevant option for engineers and technical profiles looking to relocate to Spain.

Good to know if you are moving

Michelin offers structured graduate programs (Prácticas Universitarias) in several Spanish plants, which are a common entry point for international students and recent graduates.
The Spanish operations are part of Michelin's global manufacturing network, meaning engineers and technical managers can transfer within the group across countries.
Positions in Spain are often in industrial plants (Aranda de Duero, Valladolid, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Lasarte-Oria), so candidates should be open to living in mid-sized cities rather than Madrid or Barcelona.
The company provides a formal, corporate environment with a strong focus on safety (prevención de riesgos laborales) and continuous improvement, which suits professionals from structured manufacturing backgrounds.
Working language in the Spanish plants is predominantly Spanish, so a working level of Spanish is a practical requirement for day-to-day integration.
