TESTIMONIAL

Lucas Aubert began his professional life in Kourou, French Guiana, as a design office technician for CEMKO, a company specialising in timber construction. At the company, which employs around forty people, he works on projects from the design stage through to production, including drawing up plans. Whether it’s the construction of secondary schools, social housing, school complexes, boarding schools or a police headquarters, he is involved in around fifteen projects, mainly public tenders.

I have fond memories of my training at ENSTIB, with courses that matched my expectations and, above all, were totally useful for my current duties. My only regret is that it was so short, because I have the impression that the year went by very quickly. The atmosphere was good. Today I’m really enjoying my work at CEMKO. I work with a team of seven people, and we have a lot of projects on the go. I don’t have time to get bored and I really like French Guiana!
