As commercial manager at Aximum Marking Products, Emmanuel knew everything there was to know about road marking. When he discovered the Flowell dynamic signaling solution designed by Colas, he was completely won over by this innovative technology. Keen to get involved in the project, he joined the team as development manager for the new product. “Colas has always been the benchmark as far as I’m concerned. I spent my childhood in Africa because of my father’s job and the company’s yellow diamond was everywhere”, explains Emmanuel. Ethically-minded and concerned about environmental issues, he identifies with the Group’s values and Flowell’s objectives. “As well as the numerous technical, legal and commercial aspects that have to be understood and addressed, there is much to do in terms of technological development and studying the behavior of future users.” A genuine personal undertaking as far as Emmanuel is concerned. “I'm proud to be a part of this adventure, alongside engineers whose backgrounds are very different from mine and who are armed with some extraordinary professional experiences. I’m working towards an exciting objective. It’s extremely rewarding!”
 

Peter joined the Miller Group, a Colas Canada company that operates in construction and paving, in 2005. Even if his job and responsibilities have evolved throughout the years, he has always worked in commercial aggregate material sales. Managing a team of sales representatives, he oversees business planning and financial reviews. A large part of his job is seeking new product lines and aggregate sources to support the paving business. He especially likes the entrepreneurial spirit in the company, and “the nice hybrid approach of carrying on the traditional values of a privately-held, family-run business, along with the large corporate support” that Colas has brought. As for being part of an international group, he thinks it’s a great asset to interact with people all around the world. Peter thrives on being proactive; according to him, finding out what you are good at and loving your job is essential. “In the end, it benefits the company; it’s a win-win relationship”.
