ALTEN opens new site in Marseille and plans to recruit 100 new employees
ALTEN, a world leader in engineering and technology services, will inaugurate its new Marseille Michelet site on May 30, 2024, which will welcome more than 200 employees. This new site strengthens ALTEN’s expansion project in the Marseille region, by recruiting 100 new employees.
The Group already has a strong presence in the region, with a branch in Vitrolles opening in 2019, hosting nearly 1,000 employees. This new location in Marseille is strategically close to its customers in the energy and nuclear sectors. ALTEN selected these premises in a modern building that meets its high standards in terms of environmental sustainability.
The 100 new hires planned for Marseille in 2024 will be in the planning and project management, project engineer, control/automation engineer and operations/safety engineer professions.
“ALTEN is a long-standing partner of major players in the energy and nuclear industries. With the opening of this new site, we aim to increase our capacity to respond to our customers’ challenges and contribute to the economic development of Marseille and the South-East region.”
