The Happeners Making Trade Happen
How does Coface connect you to the rest of the world?
I have always had to work with people who are very open-minded
in a sense, very open to international growth.
And in my day-to-day work
I'm always working with people from other countries,
both at the local level -
there are always foreigners in almost all the subsidiaries -
but also at the regional and group level.
Everyday, we communicate with
the risk underwriting centres located in seven regions around the world.
I think the cultural context that we have
gives us the opportunity to share and implement unconventional solutions,
to exchange experiences, ideas;
to look at different management styles,
and implement some of them in our day-to-day work.
What makes the employee experience at Coface special for you?
I don't feel that there are differences
in terms of culture, nationalities, or even location.
For me, we work in a team
that is located in different places,
but in everyday life, we don't see where each of us is located.
We work and we make progress on our projects.
It's the style of communication between departments with a willingness
to always help out, and to share the experience and knowledge.
I know colleagues who have very local jobs,
but have been assigned international, global or regional projects.
And yes, I think that has
always meant that Coface
can make you feel comfortable,
and that you can always have that
international vision and that intercultural support.
Coface has an open culture: here, we can speak up freely,
and share ideas across the organisation.
Coface is like a big family:
it does not matter what your nationality is, or what accent you speak.
Each of us is contributing to the world economy, and that's our common objective.
At Coface, we are Making Trade Happen.
