HR Director of Veolia Water Technologies

We consider diversity a real asset in achieving our goals, and make it a priority to value the multitude of career paths, training and personalities of our employees.

Whatever your academic background, career history and skills, it’s your attitude that makes the biggest difference when trying to find your place within our organisation – and the individual role you can play in our resource protection projects.

Diversified, numerous and borderless career paths

There is no set career path to trace. Completely the opposite, in fact. There are as many different career paths as there are individuals in our team. Depending on your skills, experience and professional aspirations, it is up to you to define the path your career will take throughout your professional life – and you’ll have the freedom to do so at your own pace.

We share in your vision by promoting training, sharing skills and encouraging internal mobility. As part of our desire to break down silos, we actively seek to bridge gaps between our different businesses as well as across departments and borders. Water is a precious resource and universal need, and our teams work in all four corners of the globe. Join VWT and you’ll gain access to this exclusive network of highly skilled water treatment professionals.

Career evolution

As much as possible, we encourage and develop professional mobility in all its forms: functional mobility, transversal, geographical, etc. For us, everything is possible. Request a transfer and go to work and live in a new country or city. Or rise through the ranks within our headquarters and various operational entities. Change your specialisation. Use our resources to find your place in a totally new department.

As the main driver of your career and mobility, you’ll benefit from the support of our dedicated teams who can advise and support you in defining and implementing your projects.

Training throughout your working life

We run many training programs throughout the year, focusing on technical know-how as well as interpersonal skills. Available in every country we operate in, catering to transversal and managerial needs, our programs are designed to help promote and develop skills to support the employability of all our employees – regardless of hierarchical level or area of expertise. In line with the evolution of our organisation and context of our operations, we create, adjust and remodel our internal training offering to match market needs.

Veolia Water Technologies also benefits from an active network of Veolia Campuses across the globe.

Veolia is one of a few groups to have set up a dedicated "school" for training purposes – where diplomas are recognised by the State. Established in 1994, the Veolia Campus now has twenty sites, including four in France, and is committed to offering training programs adapted to local needs and regulations, while respecting the educational quality standards of the Group's training policy.
