Malaysia Development Centre: A world-class development centre In 2003, after 10 years of rapid expansion in the UK, Malaysia was chosen as an additional location to allow the continued growth of Dysons manufacturing and testing facility. It was close to component manufacturers and much of the supply chain, as well as providing very high levels of manufacturing quality. Over time, Dyson operations expanded in Malaysia. Having started out with a team of just 10, today our Malaysia Design Centre has grown to be a base for more than 1,200 skilled Dyson people working across Engineering, IT, Finance, Creative and HR. Our Johor facility had humble beginnings, but what was originally a few small labs covering 350m is now a bustling campus occupying 50,000m, including state-of-art acoustic chamber, environmental chamber, and rapid prototyping facilities. Its an important centre for research, development, design and testing home to an exceptional team. Benefits Dyson Malaysia monitors the market to ensure competitive salaries and bonuses. Beyond that, youll enjoy a transport allowance and comprehensive medical care and insurance. But financial benefits are just the start of a Dyson career. Professional growth, leadership development and new opportunities abound, driven by regular reviews and dynamic workshops.
