Talent Development Program Talent Towers:
As part of the Talent Development Program, you will be put into one of our four talent towers. The talent towers are broken down by business line- Cement, Ready-Mix Concrete, Aggregates and Corporate. Read on to learn more about the talent towers and what former TDPs gained from the program.
Cement
As a Cement Talent Development Professional (TDP), you will be put in a rotation program to better understand the different aspects of the start-to-finish production cycle of cement. During each rotation, you will have a set of learning objectives and assignments. Along with that, you will gain experience in project management, technical training, outage support, and much more.

The TDP program has provided me the knowledge and confidence early in my career to be a leader that can making important decisions, as well as inspire confidence in my colleagues that I am a trustworthy source for information and job performance.
Ready-Mix Concrete
As a Ready-Mix Talent Development Professional (TDP), you will be put in a rotation program to better understand the different aspects of the safe production of Ready-Mix concrete. During each rotation, you will have a set of learning objectives and assignments. Along with that, you will gain experience in quality control, customer service, maintenance and much more.

Completing the TDP program was the best thing that could have happened for my career. Coming into Cemex, I had little experience in the construction and building materials industry. The TDP program was the landmark I needed to get me started on the right path.
Aggregates
As an Aggregates Talent Development Professional (TDP), you will be put in a rotation program to better understand the different aspects of the safe production of aggregates. During each rotation, you will have a set of learning objectives and assignments. Along with that, you will gain experience in pit operations, quality control, maintenance, and much more.

As a TDP, the professionals you network with, along with the training opportunities, ultimately make you a well-rounded employee and successful in your permanent role. 10/10 would recommend the program.
Corporate
As a Corporate Talent Development Professional (TDP), you will be based in Houston, Texas working in our Corporate office. You will participate in projects within our support functions, which are designed to provide valuable, firsthand experience in the building materials industry and excellent opportunities for networking and professional growth. Some of the departments you will be placed in could be strategic planning, logistics, HR, and more.

The TDP program helped me to learn more about CEMEX. Everyone you meet wants you to learn so that you can be a future leader of CEMEX. Thanks to the TDP program I’ve been able to experience so much more than if I wouldn’t have joined.
