Alain Pfeiffer
Chief Executive & Group Country Head - India

"There are many reasons why the Indian market represents a strong and indisputable potential for the Société Générale Group both on a business development and on a resources/talent pool standpoint.
       
The high economic growth rate in India is expected to be sustained overtime on account of several factors: Growth in per capita income, Increase in personal disposable income, Higher consumption and private investment demand, Acceleration of physical and social Infrastructure development, Gradual reforms, the growing importance of  an Indian middle class which is key target of our business model, and last but not least a growing pool of educated and talented manpower.

India’s sustained economy, supported by favourable macroeconomic factors has resulted in a boom in the Indian financial services industry with an increase in credit demand and in the overall investment basket.

On the back of such potential, our Group, which has been present in India since 1978, has recently increased its Indian ambitions and accelerated its growth with the development of seven new business activities over the past 3-4 years to reach a total of eleven different activities.

Our ambition is to build a universal bank presence and Société Générale will continue to closely monitor local regulatory and economic developments which might open the door for the development of more new business activities. The strength  of Indo-French relationship is also conducive for growth of  Societe Generale in India.

As Chief Executive and Group Country Head for India, I wish to thank you for your interest in the Société Générale Group. With a young labor force, India represents a huge talent pool for our Group, which is now operating in 82 countries and we intend to offer career opportunities that are stimulating, demanding and rewarding for those who join our Group.

I encourage you to inquire about our exciting career opportunities in our “Applying” section."
