Joining an international group like Lafarge offers a number of advantages:
At Lafarge, "international" is more than a buzzword. The distribution of the Group's workforce around the world shows the wide-ranging approach we take to production. In fact, all of our products are manufactured locally.

A decentralized Group where everyone takes responsibility |
|
|
Decentralization is a core element in our multilocal organization. The Group is made up of small units in which the performance of each employee matters.
For example, a Lafarge cement plant is an industrial asset worth around 200 million euros. Thanks to automated manufacturing and control processes, it can be operated by around 100 people. These entities are run by close-knit teams where you will rapidly take on responsibilities and your initiatives can quickly be put into practice. |
