Jaguar Land Rover has announced it is creating 1,000 new jobs at its Halewood factory on Merseyside.
The carmaker said it needed more workers in order to meet strong demand for its Range Rover Evoque and its Freelander 2.
"We are moving Halewood to three shifts and 24-hour operation to meet increased global demand," said JLR's human resources director, Des Thurlby.
The new jobs take the workforce at Halewood to almost 4,500.
That is a trebling of the number working there three years ago
