LEARN, ACT, GROW
Learn, act, grow: this is the setec Group’s promise to all employees, encouraging each person to play an active role in their own development, on both a technical and human level. This promise guides all actions taken by our companies.
Shared initiatives and common objectives: attracting new talent, contributing to the development of our expertise and skills by encouraging the personal development of our employees, both in France and abroad, but also working towards equal opportunities through internal and external actions in support of the schools with which we partner. The setec experience is first and foremost a human and citizen experience!
Strengthening and expanding skills
setec’s commitment to employees is to accompany them throughout their career so that they can adapt their expertise to the challenges we face, particularly in terms of the environment and climate change.
We also attach great importance to the diversity and multi-disciplinary of the assignments and projects we assign to our employees, which contributes to developing their skills, their ability to adapt and their creativity in proposing innovative solutions.
In addition, all employees have access to our own learning platform, as well as customised training courses designed with the help of companies at our in-house university, Campus setec.
Growing within the Group
Moving from the status of generalist to that of specialist, or from technical project management to project management or assistance to project management, are frequent career moves for setec employees, thanks to the active encouragement of their superiors and peers.
Career development means taking on responsibilities and working on different projects, particularly as a result of the opportunities that exist between Group companies in France and abroad. Everybody is an active player in their own career.
All of the companies’ job offers can be consulted on the Group’s intranet. This gives employees the opportunity to apply spontaneously as part of an internal recruitment process.
Developing internationally
We are also committed to increasing our employees’ understanding of the career opportunities offered by setec abroad, and to attracting and training talent with a strong international mindset.
The combination of skills is one of the success factors in structuring our international activity. To achieve this, setec is committed to promoting the development of exchange networks that put teams in direct contact with each other and encourage the creation of global technical networks.

CHOOSE A STIMULATING WORKING ENVIRONMENT
We are committed to providing our employees with a stimulating working environment that combines the interest and meaning of their missions with working conditions and the quality of interactions between individuals that allow everyone to feel free to dare and express their full potential.
The working environment we promote includes a high level of technical and managerial quality, where everyone is encouraged to progress and develop their skills in a caring manner. Our human-scale business model, with close technical and managerial links and low hierarchical levels, takes on its full meaning in the light of this ambition. Creating a working environment that encourages the development and well-being of each and every one of our employees is a priority at setec. We are therefore committed to structuring and perpetuating mentoring, which is already widely practised within the company.
Remote working offers employees flexibility in the organisation of their professional and personal lives.
DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
At setec, diversity is a strength in many respects. Diversity of skills, profiles and attitudes enables us to respond to new needs, the diversity of nationalities challenges our technical culture and promotes international deployment, and the diversity of genders enriches all points of view.
Diversity is the key to the relevance of our services, our resilience, our creativity and the quality of the environment we offer our employees.
Some issues, such as parity, go beyond the notion of equal treatment. As a signatory of the Gender Equality Charter in 2021, setec is committed, along with the industry as a whole, to promoting careers regardless of gender, from secondary school onwards, in order to fight the preconceived idea that engineering is exclusively a male profession.
