A visit to Granada while Stylianos Athanasopoulos was still a student of Business Sciences at the University of Athens made a deep impression on him, and when he visited the Spanish capital for the first time, he knew that Madrid would become a part of his life. He joined Galp on February 2011, as an internal auditor – one of the biggest challenges in his career up to that point. “I enjoyed the challenge, as I was going to start a role that only existed at the headquarters, in Lisbon. I was going to create a whole department from scratch in Spain.” After occupying several positions as an auditor, he became a manager and, over the last year, he took on a new role as Planning and Control Manager. “I’m the one who presents the numbers”, he quips. Stylianos, who loves flamenco music and plays the classical guitar, is set to stay in the country he adopted as his own.
Energisers – an exhibition about people – portrays Galp employees based in Portugal, Spain, Mozambique and Brazil who ensure the necessary energy to guarantee the world does not stop.
The result of a partnership with VISÃO magazine, this photo report created by photographers Arlindo Camacho (Portugal), Enric Vives-Rubio (Spain), Mauro Vombe (Mozambique) and Jardiel Carvalho (Brazil) shows us, through a unique perspective, who these people really are beyond their professional role. How they spend their days, where they come from, how they live, what they did to get where they are and what dreams they still wish to fulfil.
