Mobile network deployment project manager (M/F)

Joining Davidson not only means joining a group of 3,000 consultants in 6 countries and 2 continents, but also joining a company that has been voted a Great Place To Work France and Europe by its employees for

no less than 4 years , as well as one of the largest B Corps in France, named Best in the World in the 'employees' category in 2022! ('B Corps' form a community of companies that have decided not to be the best in the world but the best FOR the world).

Because our development is based on strong principles:

Deep respect for all our stakeholders: consultants, customers and suppliers. Because if work 'can't buy you happiness', it can however cause unhappiness. Therefore, we are committed to listening and acting honestly.

Equal opportunities in the processing of our applications and in the career management of our employees. We believe in a workplace where gender equality, inclusion and diversity are the norm.

A minimal environmental impact and a maximum societal impact. That's why, beyond the work you'll be carrying out, you'll also be able to contribute to projects that Davidson supports: international solidarity work (with Planète Urgence), volunteering with charities (each Davidsonian has 3 days a year to work with them), supporting students from underprivileged backgrounds (with Article 1), investing in startups developing innovative solutions, collective and individual actions to reduce our carbon footprint, etc.

Adhocratic management based on the implementation of the principles of 'horizontal company' and 'tribal management'. One important detail on this last point: well-being at work is a luxury that we must be able to grant ourselves by being a 'solid' company. For Davidsonians, this means combining initiative, commitment and professionalism. Because 'talent without work is nothing'. And it encourages us to recruit .. who are better than us...

We encourage applications from people with disabilities, and we are committed to meeting their specific needs in the best possible way.
