Testimonial
Christophe M.
As a graduate of ESTP engineering school, majoring in Building, I began working for the branch as a works foreman. My responsibilities grew rapidly and I became Senior Works Foreman then Account Manager. As Account Manager, you’re responsible for either several smaller or one large-scale project. It’s a fascinating and hands-on job with plenty of human interaction. We develop our skills all the time in this job, learning a lot on a wide range of projects. By moving to one of the FAYAT BÂTIMENT Division branches, I joined a dynamic branch on a human scale and I’m lucky to work with enthusiastic colleagues.
I’m currently heading up a 363-apartment project, complete with 8 buildings and a 600-space overground car park. My role is to manage a team including a Senior Works Foreman, 5 Works Engineers, and several trainees. I’m also responsible for making sure the project’s deadlines and quality standards are met, and financial results are on-point. This means scheduling and organising work on site and managing the different stakeholders. I also have a leadership role, which sees me assist and motivate the teams.
