Heading: Who We Are
 Subheading: A Certain Spirit
Martin Bouygues, Group Chairman and CEO
The Bouygues Group was created 50 years ago by Francis Bouygues, a young engineer with strong convictions. In particular, he believed that to be a leader - to become and to remain one - demanded that one seeks out challenges and strives for innovation.
A common cultural identity runs through the entire organisation, where people share a common vision for the success of the company. This stems from the constant quest of perfection for the delivery of innovative, technically challenging and cost effective solutions.
The Bouygues Group's priority today as always: the confidence and satisfaction of its clients.
This strong and original corporate culture, based on staff empowerment and fostering team spirit, has forged unity within the Group and enabled Bouygues UK to flourish..
The Bouygues Group's Values:
People are our greatest asset
Clients confidence and satisfaction - the raison d'être of any company
Quality, key to competitive edge, a primary selection criterion
Technical innovation improves cost efficiency and underpins our market leadership
Promotion based on recognition of individual merit
Young people hold the potential that will forge the Group's future
Training that gives our people the means to improve their performance
Challenge drives progress. To stay a leader, we must continually challenge and push the boundaries
Attitude is more powerful than technical and economic strength alone
