Meet our construction manager, Carine Trang  

As one of the key people responsible for making sure everything runs smoothly on site, Carine Trang (construction manager) plays a crucial role in delivering projects on time, on budget, and to the highest standards. Known for her calm approach and adaptability, Carine thrives in the fast-paced world of fit-out – expertly balancing people, priorities and progress. So, let’s find out a little more about what makes her tick, in our latest Q&A...

Can you share a little bit about what you do, and the role you play in the delivery of Agilité’s projects?

As a construction manager, my main responsibility is to coordinate the site works – ensuring that everything aligns with the project plans and timelines, while staying compliant with regulations. I must be flexible and ready to adapt, whether it’s handling unexpected on-site issues, or managing the different people involved in the project. The ultimate goal is always to deliver a high-quality result, on time and with minimal complications.

How would you describe our organisation and the work we do to someone who had never heard of Agilité before?

Agilité is an international company that stands out for its flexibility and problem-solving approach. We adapt quickly to challenges and are solution-focused in everything we do. We also build strong, lasting relationships with our partners and clients, while prioritising environmental responsibility – something that truly differentiates us in the industry.

What has been your favourite Agilité project to work on so far?

It’s hard to choose just one, because every project is unique, with its own set of challenges, specificities, and dynamics between clients and subcontractors. But if I had to pick, I’d have to say an office project we completed in Luxembourg, for one of the world's oldest and largest investment management organisations. The level of coordination with both internal teams and the client was exceptional, and the attention to detail – especially with the furniture – made it a truly standout project to work on.

In your opinion, what makes Agilité stand out from the crowd? And how do you put your own stamp on that distinction?

It’s the quality of work, the diversity of experiences across the team, and our ability to adapt under pressure. We’re constantly learning from each other, sharing knowledge, and growing stronger as a result. Personally, I contribute by staying flexible, proactive, and focused on delivering projects with excellence, even in the face of unexpected changes on-site.

Describe a defining moment in your career, and how it has shaped the work you do at Agilité.

One defining moment was during my apprenticeship after finishing my studies. I was sent abroad to manage a major nursing home project, completely autonomously. Being trusted with such a big responsibility early on forced me to adapt quickly, take ownership, and really understand the impact of my decisions. That experience taught me the importance of initiative, attention to detail, and clear communication, all values that guide the way I work at Agilité today.

What excites you most about the future of Agilité? How do you see your role contributing to this vision?

Agilité is continuing to grow, both through new partnerships and by expanding our team. This growth is driven by the quality of our work and the strong relationships we build, and it allows us to keep improving client satisfaction. I see my role as key in supporting this growth by ensuring every project is delivered smoothly from a strong start to a snag-free finish that delights the client.

And finally, when you’re not at work, where are we most likely to find you?

Most likely at home, reading a book, or watching a drama on Netflix with my family taking a well-earned break!
