Ways to boost your career at Assystem

A personalised, pro-active training path

Training and skills development have always been strategic pillars of our HR policy.

From the moment you arrive and throughout your career, we will help you to develop your skills through several programmes:

  • Right from day one, you can access a digital integration programme on our e-learning platform to better understand our culture, our activities, our organisation and our commitment to the energy transition.
  • Structured and personalised training programmes to support your personal development and help you adopt a knowledge-acquiring approach throughout your career, underpinned, among others, by our "Learn to Switch" Assystem Institute. This Institute brings together technical and business expertise transposed into internal training programmes and systems, facilitated and delivered by our experts, to support the Group's skills development plan in line with its strategy and business challenges.

We set up training tools and programmes for employees, with a catalogue of more than 70 internal training courses (to support the Businesses, Project, Sales and Management departments, including cross-divisional soft skills) deployed in France and internationally.

More than 50 experts and instructors work within the Assystem Institute. They receive regular training in teaching and in the learning methods used for the benefit of the Switchers.

This community is constantly expanding to meet the challenges associated with the requisite skills of our many projects.

Altogether, at Assystem, we spend 86,000 hours training more than 4,800 employees every year.

Assystem implements a proactive training policy based on digitalisation and educational innovation, and on the relationship between experts/trainers and employees, for the benefit of its customers and the energy transition.

Learning throughout your career, being part of a learning rationale, using diverse training materials and tools... and being pro-actively involved in your own development: this has been our approach for more than 55 years.

A mobility policy open to all

Thanks to the diversity of our fields of activity, projects, organisation and international locations, we offer a host of career opportunities in France and throughout the world. It is not uncommon to meet Switchers who have had different jobs, worked in different sectors and held different positions, even in different countries.

At Assystem, mobility is a plus. It is encouraged and appreciated. Our Group's buoyancy means there are multiple internal opportunities:

  • Inter-sector mobility to develop within our different fields of activity

  • Inter-business mobility to develop towards technical team supervision, project management or technical expertise positions

  • Geographic mobility in all our sites throughout France and in the 12 countries in which we are present

70% of local managers are promoted from within, and 60% hold positions of high responsibility.

Every year, there are more than 400 cases of mobility within Assystem, 30% of which internationally.

Four interconnected development paths become accessible as you advance within the Group:

  • Technical expertise
  • Project management
  • Commercial development
  • Management
