Staff Profile – Serge SELMA

Today, let’s talk about the role of Cellar Operations Manager (ROC) held by Serge SELMA within the 3S team at the Villeveyrac site (34).

💡 1. Could you introduce yourself and describe your role and responsibilities in a few words?

I joined 3S in January 2000. I started as a cellar worker, then became assistant cellar master. Today, I am the Cellar Operations Manager (ROC).

My role is to oversee all operations carried out on the wines before they are bottled: receiving the wines, blending, oenological treatments, filtration, stabilisation, quality checks… I ensure that every stage is carried out in accordance with quality requirements, deadlines and our customers’ expectations.

💡 2. What do you enjoy most about your day-to-day work and responsibilities?

Above all, I enjoy working with a variety of people on a daily basis: clients, oenologists, the analysis laboratory teams, the production teams, and so on. These interactions are very rewarding and allow me to learn and develop both professionally and personally.

I also appreciate the variety of tasks. Every wine is different, and every client has their own requirements. We therefore need to strike the right balance between the client’s expectations and our internal constraints to ensure impeccable quality and compliance with regulations.

💡 3. What values are important to you at 3S? Why did you choose to join this company?

I chose this company precisely because of these values: the opportunity to develop professionally in an environment based on communication, transparency and respect.

3S is a company that cares about the health and safety of its employees.

Kindness, trust and integrity are the values that characterise a fair company: and that’s exactly what 3S is!

👏 Thank you, Serge, for your commitment and professionalism every day!
