ManoImpact People

People at the forefront

Since day one, we have worked towards building a people company.

ManoMano is a unique adventure, in a stimulating and caring work environment.

A deeply
human ambition

Since day one, we’ve been building ManoMano with a deeply human ambition.

 

To enable our seller partners to make their products available online – and to do so with a relationship based on partnership, trust and daily support.

 

To provide products and services that are adapted to our market with, for example, human support and advice via our digital technology.

 

And finally, to offer all our Manas and Manos a professional experience that truly impacts the development of their skills and career paths.

 

At ManoMano, we believe that building a people-first company means building an organisation where everyone is in their rightful place. Everyone’s role, as colleagues and managers, is to help each person define their talents and to create a caring environment with a meaningful mission. 

 

This is our vision of a fulfilling professional experience that serves both our employees and the company. And this focus on people is what makes us strong, unique and able to provide you with the ManoMano experience every day. 

Building a people-first company

At ManoMano, we strive to ensure that our Manas and Manos enjoy coming to work.

Whether in the office or at home.

WorkAtom:
Greater flexibility, same collaboration

Testing, failing and learning has always been part of our DNA. The multiple lockdowns shook up our habits and ways of living (and working)! So, we decided to reinvent our work organisation.

 

Together, we created WorkAtom, a hybrid working model that generates greater well-being for all our employees.

WorkAtom is a reference to the image of atoms, like teams, which gravitate around a nucleus to form a single organisation.

Work from home
0 to 5 days a week (for eligible departments)
Full-remote
8 weeks per year in a location other than your main residence (for eligible departments)
“In September 2021, I chose to work 3 days a week in the office. Recently, my life took an unexpected turn and my family moved. I was able to become fully remote. My relationship with my team and other colleagues has remained strong because I come to Paris at least once a month to see everyone.”
Michela Bernardini
Lead Technical Account Manager - Seller Support
"With WorkAtom, I can work from home, live in the cheaper city of Valencia and spend more time with my family. I’ve found the perfect work-life balance."
Adrián Señor
back-end developer
More freedom, more remote working and just as much collaboration!

You might think that WorkAtom has driven us apart, but in fact it is the opposite. The framework has actually strengthened the moments when we are all together, including (crazy) parties.

Our talents
grow with us

We help our Manas and Manos grow by making sure that everyone finds their rightful place in the company. At ManoMano, employees co-construct their career paths according to their ambitions.

 

Léa from Sales dreams of moving into Product?

William, a Developer, wants to improve his technical skills?

Cristina from Customer Service wants to take on more responsibility?

 

At ManoMano, anything is possible.

By each
parent’s side

One third of our 1,000 Manas and Manos are parents. You should see our kids’ Christmas party!

 

Balancing family life and work isn’t always easy (if you know, you know), so we’ve implemented practical measures for parents, regardless of how long they’ve been in the company:

 

1 extra month

of fully paid maternity leave for future mothers

 

2 extra weeks

of fully paid paternity leave for fathers and co-parents

 

Fully paid salaries

for the duration of adoptive parents’ parental leave

 

3 days

paid leavein the event of miscarriage

 

5 days

of sick child leave for everyone

At ManoMano, we take our Manas and Manos’ family life as seriously as their work. To avoid work having a negative effect on their family life and to ensure that the two co-exist as smoothly as possible, we take a realistic approach to these situations, so that our employees don’t have to manage the pressure of inevitable trade-offs alone.”

Normalising
mental health

Lockdowns, isolation, remote working… The health crisis forced employees apart and brought certain issues that are still taboo to the forefront. At ManoMano, we believe that it is time to normalise mental health, including at work.

So, to help support our teams’ mental well-being, we have partnered with an expert in the field. The Moka.care platform enables all our Manos and Manas to seek the help of psychologists, coaches and therapists whenever necessary, in the strictest confidence (4 sessions per year paid for by ManoMano).

 

91/100
ManoMano Score 2021

The Act of 5 September 2018 “for the freedom to choose one’s future career” requires companies to calculate their gender equality index* every year.

 

This is an indispensable prerequisite for assessing and remedying possible differences in remuneration.

 

We are actively working to further improve this score and make ManoMano a company where all employees, both men & women, have the same opportunities to grow and advance their careers.

 

* In the form of a score out of 100, this index consists of 5 indicators that assess the pay inequalities between women and men within companies.

36/40
Pay gap between women and men
15/15
Number of employees receiving a raise after returning from maternity leave
15/15
Difference in promotion rates between women and men
For the empowerment of women

We firmly believe that gender diversity and the equal treatment of men and women go hand in hand with business performance – including in the tech and DIY sectors, which are typically regarded as more masculine.

 

So, to bring about change at our level, we’ve developed a tailor-made programme, designed with, and for, women: The Ladder.

 

The Ladder

The Ladder is a way for our Manas and Manos to work to empower women. We organise conferences to inspire and challenge preconceptions, networking sessions and mentoring programmes to boost self-confidence. We also share information and best practices on a day-to-day basis via an internal communication channel.

“I am delighted to have the opportunity to be involved in this community and to be able to combine my beliefs, as well as my willingness to act, with practical, responsible, informed and powerful initiatives.”

ManoSchool

 

The integration of apprentices whose social origin, gender or background don’t predestine them to our professions, especially in tech. Since 2020, we have developed a partnership and tailor-made programme with the feminist code school Ada Tech School to enable students to join ManoMano on an apprenticeship contract.

 

 

 

FOUNDATIONS

 

To make ManoMano a company that helps people who have lost touch with the job market to develop their skills, know-how, confidence and employability. Since 2021, we have been working with LinkedOut  to provide vulnerable or disadvantaged applicants, who are ready and motivated, with opportunities to work.

 

 

 

For equal opportunities

We want to build a strong workforce that promotes diversity, inclusion and integration for the less fortunate, so we have created several programmes:

Actions beyond our walls
300

hours of impact since the launch of the partnership

Corporate volunteering

At ManoMano, our commitment doesn’t stop at our doorstep.

 

For example, everyone can take part in a project that is close to their heart. Since 2019, with the community engagement platform, Vendredi, each Mana and Mano can take a paid day off to help a charity of their choice. 

 

Promoting Ethical Hacking and Digital Trust

In 2021, ManoMano also launched the Hack4Values initiative, in collaboration with Yogosha and Communications Sans Frontières. The mission: to help charities and NGOs manage their cybersecurity risks through vulnerability detection and management sessions organised by elite certified hackers.

 

Impact since launch:
The community of more than 50 ethical hackers has produced more than 150 security reports.

 

Goal for 2022:
To support more than 5 new charities and grow the community of Hack4Values ethical hackers.

 

At ManoMano, we are aware of the challenges presented by cyberattacks. With Hack4Values, we share our culture and the expertise of ethical hackers to improve digital trust throughout society and the security of charities and NGOs.

Long-lasting relationships with our sellers
From day one
we work with our partners

They say that your company is only as extraordinary as your people. At ManoMano, this has included our sellers since the beginning.


From day one, our goal has not been to be just another soulless, unethical marketplace. Every day, we strive to build privileged and long-lasting relationships with all our seller partners. We select them for their catalogue and professionalism, of course, but also for the trust they inspire in us and our shared values.

 

Our ambition is to provide all our partners with quality human support that will help them grow their business online and make it more responsible every day.
