Bureau Veritas is at its core a conformity assessment company with an overriding commitment to quality and client orientation. As a result, our first goal is to attract and retain the very best people. We believe that we are in an industry with opportunities for tremendous growth, and we have spent the past 11 years increasing our employee base from 8,000 to over 33,000 people worldwide. Our managers must spend a large part of their time recruiting, selecting, training, coaching, and leading their teams. Our primary asset is our staff. Whether you have technical, operational, sales or business support expertise, if you share our passion for helping businesses and organisation manage efficiently their Quality, Health & Safety, Environmental and Social Responsibility issues, if you share our values, we would love to hear from you and help you.

Between 2004 and 2009, we plan to double the number of Bureau Veritas employees to 40,000. Our challenge is to keep our values and identity while growing. Our first goal is to attract, select and retain.

With a worldwide network of more than 850 offices and laboratories, we're a global and independent company, the partner of choice and reference for conformity and risk management solutions. Our primary asset is our staff. They bring a unique breadth of expertises to our clients. Our worldwide presence ensures an enriching mix of cultures, languages and personalities. But they all have something in common - a vision and a mission, and values that we all share.

With 850 offices and laboratories spread over 140 countries, you will be part of a big family. In fact we currently have over 33,000 employees with a goal to increase that number as our business grows. Our multilingual, multinational environment allows us to take the best from all cultures. With 300,000 customers to serve, we view training for our staff seriously. Helping them to grow to their highest potential and advancing their professional competencies is one of our key goals.

In Bureau Veritas, our diversification is our strength. Our expertise in the areas of Quality, Health & Safety, Environment and Social Responsibility translates to so-called "BV Job Families" and their respective technical and non-technical proficiencies. In other words, there are many areas for the budding employee to specialise and excel depending on his or her background and strengths.
