ISABELLE MARTINS

Assistant, Nancy GSF Ariane

The atmosphere is very friendly; my colleagues are my friends.

I joined GSF in April 1988 at Nancy somewhat by chance, after seeing an advert in the paper.

Secretaries can organise their work independently; there is no pressure.

For the sales side of things, I mainly work with the CE on contracts and quotes. We monitor money coming in, we remind customers about unpaid bills, we manage product and equipment orders and we manage the company’s petty cash.

We also record invoices and audits, manage the branch’s gross margins, discounts or rebates and inter-branch expenses. We have little contact with other branches.

I'm happy to go to work every morning. I work for a branch where many people have been here a long time. It’s fun - we have all become friends now. The GSF spirit is reflected by the convivial, family aspect you find in the branches.

We are trained in 2 roles, sales and personnel, and the secretaries wear these two caps.

My advice to new secretaries is not to give up, give it everything you’ve got and in this role you will learn how to do many interesting things.

GSF is a good group to work for, and that is motivating. In terms of relationships, it is a very different company to work for. When you want to talk about something, you can.

Branch assistant : an essential role alongside the Unit Manager

Reporting to the Unit Manager, you help with the company’s administrative management. Your main missions :
