Research by GlobalData shows Danoneâs job postings jumped in the second quarter during the Covid-19 lockdowns, rising from 536 in January to reach a high of 1,141 in May. However, this was followed by a reorganization in the third quarter, which led to reduced positions at the French dairy and water giant.
Ajay Thalluri, Business Fundamental Analyst at GlobalData, said: âDanone adapted to the Covid-19 market environment as job postings resonated with a change in consumer habits, rationalization of product portfolio and channel dynamics.GlobalDataâs Job Analytics database found that the companyâs hiring has been inclined towards the packaging and digitalization space, in line with its areas of focus going forward.â
