Since the past 20 years, Bel put the Corporate Sustainability & Responsibility at the heart of its strategy, enabling us to become a mission-lead company (since 2024). Hence we created the Impact Team, gathering in the same community Environmental, Social, Governance and Finance teams.

The Impact function brings together Profitability and Sustainability to serve a global performance model based on two legs co-piloting. Profitability and sustainability are not opposing goals, but the two pillars of a responsible growth model. By combining financial and non-financial drivers, we empower our teams to act with both short-term efficiency and long-term vision.

By joining the Impact function within our Finance, CSR and M&A teams, you’ll help build a more responsible model, where every decision creates value for today and for the future.
