François Bougie

CDMB Group Leader

Having started in the Folding department in 1998, François is the manager with the most seniority. He advanced quickly and, six months after his arrival, he had already become the head of the folding team. After holding this position for over 11 years, he continued his progress by becoming head of the evening group and then head of the CDMB group, another division of Mundial Group, located in the same factory as Metal Bernard.

Even though he has studied in wildlife conservation, François quickly found his place in metals.

At Metal Bernard, I found the necessary space to develop and find fulfillment. Metal Bernard’s strong culture of continuous improvement has allowed me to continually remain stimulated. Now, I want to give back and mentor those who have the talent and desire to develop!”

Érick Valois

Group Leader / Quotation, Programming and Engineering

In 2001, Érick would never have thought that the most important day of his career would also be America’s darkest day. That’s right, Érick began working as a laser operator on September 11, 2001.

A shareholder since 2014, over the years, Érick worked his way up the company ranks thanks to his love for teamwork and his dedication to the company. He accepted every challenge that came his way and eventually moved from the factory to the office. Thus, he went from the laser department to the programming and drawing department, and then became coordinator. Shy by nature, he overcame his uneasiness through the inspiration of the coaches around him. This allowed him to develop leadership skills and, a few years later, to become the office group leader. The help and inspiration of team members around him allowed him to make the office what it is today.

“I am lucky to fully fulfill my role as group leader and to support this amazing team, which is like a big family to me.”

Outside of work, Érick spends most of his time with his wife and two children, who are the most important part of his life. Finally, he admits that he has long been very interested in restoration, particularly his 1953 Chevrolet Bel Air.

JLM PRECISION MACHINING

Shareholders

Frédéric Bernard

Plant Manager

With over 12 years of seniority at Mundial Group, Frédéric is the type of person who knows how to seize opportunities. His appetite for challenges helped him move up the ranks of the Metal Bernard team, where he worked for almost 11 years. With a technical diploma in mechanical engineering, he began his career at Metal Bernard as a machinist. He then became a team leader, and finally rose to the position of shipping and CDMB group leader, a position he held until 2015.

Following Mundial Group’s 2015 acquisition of JLM Precision Machining, Frédéric was offered the position of plant manager.

“I joined a great team and my goal now is to become the leader in machining.”

His leadership, positive attitude, calm demeanour and team building personality help him guide his team’s development and JLM’s growth. He is a proud ambassador of Mundial Group’s mission and guiding principles!

Nancy Boily

Quality, Shipping and Continuous Improvement Manager

Inspired by her father, who worked in the metal and welding field, Nancy developed an interest in machining at the age of 18. Despite the quotas of the time and the non-traditional nature of the job for a woman, in 2000, she obtained a vocational diploma in machining techniques. She continued her training with an Attestation of Vocational Specialization (AVS) in digital control systems and an AVS in business start-ups. This training increased her desire to become part of the first forming dies and tooling group in Québec. In 2002, through perseverance and determination, she was one of seven students who passed this gruelling, combined course which ran from morning to night at the training centre.

In 2002, she was hired at Metal Bernard as a weekend laser operator. One year later, her thirst for knowledge inspired her to enter the field of estimation. In 2004, she became CDMB Director, which allowed her to flourish within the team and use her skills as a machinist. In 2011, because of her interest in continuous improvement, she became head of the continuous improvement and quality control department. Finally, in 2016, her knowledge of machining and experience in continuous improvement led her to a new challenge, becoming shareholder of JLM Precision Machining.

As an athlete and an artist at heart, Nancy is an enthusiastic person always looking for new experiences. Without a doubt, her family is what is most precious to her.
