Schneider Electric to hire 66 for new Fairfield location

Posted by Schneider Electric on December 4th, 2017

The company’s background is mostly in helping customers manage energy at all levels from distribution to consumption, according to Salman Syed, the company’s site manager and overseer of day-to-day operations at the Fairfield facility.

“We consider ourselves the world’s leading specialist on energy management,” Syed said. “We have several brands in our portfolio, notably Square D, APC, Pelco, Telvent, and Foxboro.”
Schneider Electric was founded in 1836 by two brothers in Le Creusot, France. Its global headquarters are located just outside of Paris. The company acquired Square D in 1991 and APC in 2007. Globally, it employs more than 130,000 people and has a presence on every continent.

The company has five Southwest Ohio sites, including an Oxford facility which opened in 1966 and employs nearly 275 people. Its newest plant in Fairfield will be an expansion from its current plant off Windisch Road in West Chester Twp.

The Fairfield plant specializes in providing engineered to order solutions and wiring/integrating control equipment in Low Voltage and Medium Voltage switchgear.
The company also has a site in Dayton that produces sensors, and two other sites in West Chester servicing retrofits of existing customer equipment and installation of building management solutions.
