Message from the Managing Director

Human Resources management at Côte d'Ivoire Terminal reflects the Company’s desire to recruit talents in all departments and assist employees in their development, through the promotion of diversity and social inclusion.

The Company also focusses its efforts to ensure compliance with ethics in its recruitments, and is committed to fight all forms of employment discrimination.

We work to create a pleasant and stimulating work environment for our 450 employees, encouraging them to give their best. In this regard, the recruitment and integration of our employees is conducted in conformity with policies as well as fair and transparent processes.

Côte d'Ivoire Terminal strives to promote the feminization of all jobs by ensuring professional equality between female and male employees. We promote gender diversity within all departments and in particular the technical department and support all initiatives promoting women’s employment.

In order to attract the best young talent and retain them, our traineeship policy is based on excellence, in line with our culture and values. Thanks to our partnerships with schools and various organizations, we are at the forefront in recruiting the best young talent.

We support the economic development in Côte d'Ivoire and the sub-region, with dynamic, multicultural and professional human resources.

Our HR policy

Côte d’Ivoire Terminal’s Human Resources Management policy is focussed around five key elements: administration, skills development, labour relations, human resources management, diversity and social inclusion.

The Company is integrating aspects related to ethics in particular. Côte d'Ivoire Terminal is therefore committed to fight all forms of employment discrimination, whether based on name, geographical origin, social origin, disability, gender, age, sexual orientation, morals, family status, genetic characteristics, political opinions, trade union or mutual organisations’ activities, religious beliefs, physical appearance, health condition, pregnancy, etc. This approach is warranted through transparent processes that are free of any conflict of interest.

Internships

Stage & Alternance

To attract the best young talent and promising profiles, in line with our culture and values, we have set up partnerships with schools and institutions that allow us to be at the forefront in terms of recruitment of only the best young talent from schools.

Once joined Côte d'Ivoire Terminal, these trainees become dynamic resources that bring a fresh look on our activities and promote innovation.

Within the Company, we offer to trainees the possibility of testing their potential by assigning them missions with real responsibilities and learning value. In this context, if the experience proves positive, the trainee becomes a new recruit and is ready to work with our internal tools and processes.

Traineeships offer essential pre-recruitment opportunities. It is therefore important to support students as they develop their skills, in particular by encouraging their integration, the taking up of a new job and assisting them in the fulfilment of their duties. It is particularly important to provide them with regular feedback, in order to assist them in their professional development and help them grow in the Company.

To create a young talent pool, the evaluation of trainees and work-study program participants is crucial in order to have feedback on the candidates’ experience and to be able to contact them in case of relevant opportunities. This evaluation is reciprocal.

Through this approach, students we welcome are able to transform their "traineeship experience" into an opportunity of continuous improvement.

Travailler à Côte d’Ivoire Terminal

At Côte d'Ivoire Terminal, the recruitment strategy all focusses on ensuring that we meet objectives and deal with challenges of the industry. It contributes in a decisive way to the Company’s performance by onboarding the best profiles, embracing our culture and our values.

Well programmed recruitments intend to reinforce the teams and are conducted in compliance with the Labour Code provisions. Recruitment and onboarding is conducted in conformity with fair and clear policies and procedures.

The Human Resources Department is in charge of the recruitment process and defines the needs in consultation with others involved in the recruitment. The business unit heads communicate their needs both internally and externally, using the most appropriate media to ensure transparency in the process.

This selection process guarantees equal opportunities for all profiles. We firmly believe that diversity in the Company is a source of productivity and creativity.

The selection of profiles is carried out in a totally transparent manner, using evaluation tools that allow us to understand 3 main elements:

  • Capabilities
  • Technical and behavioral skills
  • The candidate's motivation

Careers

Career management at Côte d'Ivoire Terminal is based on the establishment of career committees. These committees calibrate the individual managerial assessment carried out during the annual interview, with the collective assessment of the employee's performance. Such joint assessment and calibration warrant a better evaluation of the employee and provide ground for a better career orientation. The content of this cross-analysis enables the Company to anticipate the employee's evolution within the organization and establishes adequate succession plans, as well as the development actions to be implemented.

This approach favours a progressive evolution for all employees and encourages their full development within the Company.
