Internal career mobility central to the BNP Paribas ‘employer promise’ Employees at any company are keen to grow their skills and progress, and this is one of the eight basic promises which the BNP Paribas Group makes to its staff. In 2014, half of our staff had been in their current position for less than three years, which gives an indication of the range and variety of career opportunities across the Group. BNP Paribas is determined to offer every employee the chance to grow and diversify his/her work experience by making job moves across the Bank’s various geographies and/or businesses. Explains Yves Martrenchar, BNP Paribas Group Head of Human Resources: “As ‘the bank for a changing world’, we are committed to being more agile and proactive, which makes it absolutely essential to recruit the most talented people and enable them to grow with us. Our staff are looking for stimulating careers with the prospect of progress. And they have every right to expect this from a Group with an integrated, diversified business model that has permanent establishments in 75 countries.” In February this year, BNP Paribas was awarded, for the second time, certification as one of the ‘Top Employers Europe’, in recognition of the Group’s high quality HR policies. *Algeria, Bahrain, Belgium, Burkina Faso, Comoros, Côte d’Ivoire, Czech Republic, France, Gabon, Germany, Guinea, Hungary, India, Italy, Kuwait, Luxembourg, Mali, Morocco, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States (New York) Follow us on :@BNPParibas_pr About BNP Paribas BNP Paribas has a presence in 75 countries with more than 185,000 employees, including 145,000 in Europe.
