Promotion and recognition of in-house talent

In 2025, Roca Group has advanced in its strengthening of a unique talent management model, aligning the entire team with the company’s business strategy and values.

Roca Group Way model: people, at the center

The in-house talent management model known as Roca Group Way has the tools and methodologies needed to attract, develop and retain workers.

Progress has been made during 2025 towards extending the model to the entire group, reinforcing a global approach that identifies key skills and fosters the growth of the group’s own talent. The model relies on a common technological platform for team administration and management.

The actions that took place this year included:

  • Start-up of a new system for performance and professional development assessment based on the interaction with team managers. The RGCU has trained close to 1,900 individuals on this system.
  • Creation of a space within the corporate portal to promote internal mobility when covering new vacancies.
  • Launch of a corporate careers page to attract external talent, initially implemented in Spain and Portugal with the intent to expand globally.
Roca Group Way brings together the tools and methodologies needed to attract, develop and retain employees. During 2025, a global approach was reinforced to identify key capabilities and support the growth of internal talent.

Strengthening commitment to gender equality

In 2025, Roca Group signed on to the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) initiative established by UN Women and the United Nations Global Compact to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment in the workplace, marketplace and community. Under the guidance of these principles, the group will implement an action plan to enhance gender equality globally.

Corporate channel for internal communication

As of late 2025, nearly 7,000 group professionals already had access to Roca Group’s internal communication app, the first channel of information and documentation for all workers. Following a pilot phase, the app has been launched in various countries in the Americas and EMEA, and will reach the remaining countries in 2026. The project is led by the Corporate HR Department with the support of local staff management teams.
