Transmission, Boldness, Conquering Spirit, Passion: strong values embodied by all the women of the Groupe Beneteau
We set out to meet the Groupe Beneteau's women: talented, passionate and daring employees who all embody the Group's values in their own way. Today, we unveil 16 women, each one as inspiring as the next. Like the Group's 2,392 employees, they make up the strength of our company through their backgrounds, their experiences and their stories.
"Thank you to them for carrying the values of our company high" Mrs Annette Roux
"We often put up our own barriers, but we have to dare and take the plunge to move forward" - Maelle, Plant Director
"I am a 31 year old woman who is conquering the exciting world of industry" - Jihane, Quality Manager
"If someone had told me that I would do this job one day, I would never have believed it. And I would have even less thought that I would like it. I was trained. I was listened to. They passed on the knowledge to me so that today I can pass it on in turn" - Margot, Injector
"I knew from the beginning that I wanted to work here. I fell in love with the place and I've never given up on it. I succeeded in building my career, my path, but also my story" - Salomé, Methods Technician
"Sharing your skills, your experience, your successes, your failures so that others can be enriched by them but also improve them every day, for me that's transmission." - Cécilia, Management Control Director
"My background is atypical, coming from a commercial background. It all started with a desire, a passion... I waited until I was 50 to dare to work with my hands in shipbuilding. I learn every day, I take on challenges and I love this new life and my team!" - Muriel, Carpenter
"I do this job for myself and only myself. I love what I do but I love even more having challenges in life; this desire to constantly evolve" - Mylène, Stratificator and Draper
"I've been with the Group for over 20 years and I still can't get enough of it. We have so many opportunities, so much know-how... we support our employees, we help them grow! We really are like a family." - Carole, Logistics Supervisor
"Human resources is the heart of my job and it consists in part of passing on know-how among the Group's employees." - Camille, Operations Recruitment Manager
"I am a determined person. You could even say that I have a drive deep inside me. I go to the end of things. I go for it, there's nothing stopping me" - Mélanie, Logistics Preparer
"You can learn everything from everyone. As a manager, you make your team grow by bringing them your know-how and they bring me theirs." - Alice, Lathing Supervisor
"I do a job of precision and rigor where I have a blast! And I wouldn't change that for anything in the world" - Catherine, Modeler
"I like to learn a lot of things. I love the unknown. And my goal is to learn how to build a boat from start to finish." - Laura, Fitter
"I think we all have things to pass on, both in our personal and professional lives" - Laure, IT Project Manager
"Learning and passing on are two passions that drive me. If you know how to work with composites, you have golden hands". - Gaelle, Gap Leader Molding
