People & Teamwork: The bedrock of our success
It is no exaggeration to say that our human capital is key to our business performance. Our ambition is to be a responsible employer that provides the stimulation and opportunities for every employee around the world to develop professionally and personally, be innovative and progress their careers.
A responsible employer
Social responsibility is the unifying thread that runs through every aspect of the Group’s relationship with its teams. “In our Group, we express our commitment to social responsibility by guaranteeing a working environment that complies with all standards and treats people respectfully, ensuring their safety and encouraging their personal development as individuals”, emphasises Martin Taillefer, Chief Employee Relations Officer.
To ensure that every new employee, regardless of their job profile or location, is integrated as effectively as possible from the moment of recruitment, the Group has developed its own digital induction programme. This module has been designed to explain our shared culture (history, activities, governance, etc.), initially in French, but ultimately for rollout internationally.
The Group has also put in place a social and administrative support system for its employees in France. Its advisers are able to offer fully confidential help with life challenges around issues such as caregiving, housing, official formalities, etc.
In parallel, and as part of its commitment to social responsibility and fairness, the Group has begun the progressive introduction of a shared employee benefit fund across all its international subsidiaries to provide its people and their dependents with a higher level of protection against the risks of serious life events.

80% employees say they are proud to be part of Groupe Roullier
To learn the views and opinions of its employees, measure their engagement with the Group and generate data to inform a continuous improvement process, Groupe Roullier got together in 2025 with Great Place To Work® to conduct its first employee barometer survey.
The 76% response rate underlines the strong sense of involvement felt by our teams and their willingness to make their own active contribution to this initiative. The results were translated into action plans by working groups involving every level of employee, right up to the Group Management Team and Executive Board.
The survey results also highlighted a number of unique strengths that are widely shared across the Group: the perception of fair treatment, the constant attention paid to employee safety, and a strong sense of pride in belonging to the Group and being part of the work it does.
«Groupe Roullier did a great job in involving its teams in the rollout of our GPTW method. The results revealed substantial strengths, driven by a commitment to continuous improvement.»
Jullien Brezun, CEO at Great Place to Work® France
Stimulating employer
Representing more than 80% of the workforce, our sales and production plant teams are central factors in setting the Group distinctively apart from its competitors. Their close relationships with customers and the contribution they make to operational excellence – two of the four pillars of our Ambition 2030 strategic plan – have their roots in a shared culture in which everyone is encouraged to provide leadership and develop their own skills.
To help its talents achieve their full potential, the Group is expanding access to high-quality training opportunities tailored to individual needs. This initiative is part of an ongoing process consistent with the commitments set out in the Group CSR policy.
Employees are also encouraged to develop their skills through initiatives like our Expert Training sessions. Organised and delivered by TIMAC AGRO International, these sessions provide a forum for sharing scientific, agronomic and zootechnical expertise, circulating innovative solutions and building strong synergies between international teams.
With such a broad diversity of specialist skills, our employees are also key contributors to innovation. This is a requirement at every level and in every region. Managers have a decisive role to play in stimulating proactive involvement and encouraging a sense of responsibility and creativity to help individual initiatives feed into collective successes.
An employer that creates opportunities
The Group has always had great confidence in the individual abilities of its employees. Whether they are keen to take on greater responsibility or reinvent their careers by changing job or transferring to a different Group activity, they all have access to a wide and diverse range of career opportunities and pathways.
“In 2025, we launched a project to structure our Talent Management policy at Group level in a way that embraces the diversity of our activities and subsidiaries as the basis for building development plans and managing internal mobility”, explains Morgane Bourrée, Chief Human Resources Officer.
