Innovating to nurture talent

We are transforming the way we work.
We encourage responsible initiatives through, among other things, the Manutan Social Fund.
We support career development, particularly through our Learning Policy and Manutan University.

We are implementing initiatives to build skills, empower individuals and create clear career pathways.
A team-centered approach to build a more agile organisation and anticipate changes in our business lines.

Initiatives to support teams

Social innovation and HR are an integral part of employees’ daily lives.
It relies on listening to needs, experimentation and continuous improvement to evolve work styles and career paths.
Learning Policy, talent development programmes and manager support: each initiative serves a specific purpose.

The result: teams that are more autonomous, more engaged and better prepared for change.

Changing practices

We create the conditions for learning, engagement and collaboration in new ways, in order to support collective performance. Whether it involves technical skills or soft skills, we support teams as they evolve.

Supporting skills development

We structure employee development.
Manutan University offers training programmes tailored to each employee’s profile, complemented by internal mobility to ensure career paths align with individual aspirations and the Manutan Group’s ambitions.
Coaching, mentoring, e-learning, and hybrid training programmes round out these initiatives.

The result: personalised career paths and continuous growth.

Encourage engagement

We empower our teams to take action.
Through the Manutan Social Fund, employees lead and support projects that have a social, environmental, and societal impact.
They can get involved in local community initiatives.

The result: concrete and lasting commitment.

Preparing the talent of tomorrow

We identify and accelerate potential.
The Leaders of Tomorrow program prepares the Group’s future leaders. Meanwhile, TRIBES supports high-potential young talent through strategic hackathons, team projects, and more.

Goal: to develop responsible leadership grounded in the challenges of the future.

Adapting work practices

We’re transforming the way we collaborate.
Working@Manutan structures hybrid work. Remote management tools and established routines strengthen cooperation.
Everything is designed to facilitate communication and collective performance.

The result: teams that are more connected, more autonomous, and more effective.

Embedding innovation

We have chosen to make innovation a concrete driver of transformation.
This is reflected in the development of new business lines and areas of expertise, such as our Circular Hub, dedicated to giving equipment a second life.
Every year, our internal event, Newness, supports this momentum by rallying our teams around projects that enhance the customer experience: digital, AI, logistics…

The goal: to generate ideas, test them, and support the evolution of our business lines.

Transforming our warehouses

430 employees, 13 logistics sites: the 5S (Lean) method organises the workspaces.
Two warehouses are equipped with the advanced AutoStore® automation solution.
Enhanced safety. Improved ergonomics. Optimised performance.

Result: a direct operational impact.
