Finance ManagerSUEZ

Acteur majeur des services à l'environnement, SUEZ accompagne les collectivités et les industriels dans la gestion de l'eau et des déchets, avec une ambition forte : préserver les ressources et favoriser la transition écologique.

Le Groupe place l'humain au cœur de son développement et s'appuie sur une culture d'entreprise fondée sur le respect, l'esprit d'équipe et l'engagement en faveur d'une société plus durable et inclusive.

Engagé de longue date dans la lutte contre les discriminations, SUEZ promeut l'égalité des chances et veille à garantir un environnement de travail respectueux de toutes les différences, visibles ou invisibles, dont le handicap. Le Groupe applique une politique de tolérance zéro vis-à-vis de toute forme de discrimination et agit pour assurer l'équité à chaque étape du parcours professionnel.

Cet engagement se traduit également par des actions concrètes en faveur de l'inclusion, en France comme à l'international. SUEZ a notamment rejoint le réseau mondial « Entreprises et Handicap » de l'Organisation internationale du Travail, affirmant ainsi sa volonté de favoriser l'intégration et le maintien dans l'emploi des personnes en situation de handicap et de faire évoluer les pratiques à l'échelle du Groupe.

Au-delà de ses activités, SUEZ développe des initiatives d'innovation sociale pour favoriser l'insertion professionnelle des publics éloignés de l'emploi, dont les personnes en situation de handicap, contribuant ainsi à un impact positif sur les territoires.
