Testimony of an Administrative and Accounting Manager - VINCI Energies

Charlotte Lepré
Administrative and accounting manager, Roiret, France

"I joined the Roiret business unit ten months ago but I have been working for the VINCI Energies Group for six years. In my second year of studies for a D.U.T. degree in business and public administration, I began a work-study program in a Group business unit and I continued with it throughout my three years of business school. I was then hired under an unlimited term contract when I graduated. I learned a lot in the work-study programme and I was quickly given assignments with responsibility.

I am not yet 25 and hold the position of administrative and accounting manager in a structure with 16 employees. Not many companies, in my opinion, would have offered an opportunity like that. My job covers accounting administration, audit, balance sheet, payroll, etc. It is a wide-ranging job that calls for versatility, rigour, and independence but also people skills. I am constantly learning new things and VINCI Energies gives me regular training that enables me to make progress."
