In line with its international growth, Liebherr’s venture into the United States began in 1970. Within a couple of years, the company expanded and completed its production facilities in Newport News, Virginia, for its product line of hydraulic excavators. It was later converted into Liebherr’s manufacturing facility for mining trucks and remains home to Liebherr Mining Equipment Newport News, Co. In addition to its production facility, Liebherr markets a wide variety of products and technologies through its companies located across the United States. The companies are Liebherr-Aerospace Saline, Inc., Liebherr Gear Technology, Inc., Liebherr Automation Systems, Co., and Liebherr USA, Co., the umbrella company for 12 product segments that are positioned across the United States.
Liebherr’s internship programs provides students the opportunity to work with professionals and managers to give them practical experience that applies to their academic discipline as well as workplace transferable skills for success (i.e., communication, collaboration, workplace protocols, etc.). We want our interns to: contribute and share fresh perspectives; apply what they have learned in a real-world work environment; contribute to a pipeline of qualified candidates for consideration to full-time entry level positions upon their graduation; and, serve as ambassadors for company branding.
