*At the end of September 2019, Revision Military sold its protective eyewear business along with the Revision Military name. The remaining Armor, Soldier Power, Platform Power and Advanced Concept divisions move forward from that date under the new corporate name of Galvion. The press release below was issued prior to that sale, and therefore appears using the Revision Military name.*
Revision Military, a world leader in integrated, purpose-built soldier solutions, announces 90 new jobs in their Newport, Vermont facility. Revision is looking to hire for a large number of both temporary and full-time manufacturing positions in the Newport, Vermont location, including: Manufacturing Manager, Manufacturing Team Members (Cutting, Stapling, Kitting, Molding, Painting Sanding, Drilling, Trimming, & Assembly), Maintenance Technician, Process Engineer and Production Supervisor. Revision is increasing the team to meet the demands of recent contract orders.
Jonathan Blanshay, CEO, Revision Military commented, “We are excited to hire so many new team members at the Newport Facility.” He continued, “Our recent growth and contract wins have supported investment in plant improvements and our capability to make the best light-weight, fully integrated head systems in the market.”
Revision has diversified its business beyond the North American market, and has recently won several key contracts, including the head sub-systems supply for the new UK Cobra® Plus Helmet System. The Revision custom-designed head protection solution offers an ultra-lightweight helmet that exceeds the UK’s stringent ballistic and impact requirements.
The temporary positions are benefits eligible with a six-month contract. Revision is optimistic that follow-on orders will allow for conversion of these positions to full-time roles. To fill all 90 positions quickly, Revision will be hosting a career fair on Friday, September 18, at the Emory Hebard State Office Building, 100 Main Street Newport, VT from 9:00am to 6:00pm.
