At NOA we invest a lot so that every colleague, unit, branch and structure is not hindered in their activity due to the institutional rigidities. In addition to the regulatory organization’s organizational chart according to which the departments of the institution are divided, the entire NOA team supports a flat corporate culture where anyone, at any time, can propose any kind of improvement in achieving the objectives. We strive to be flexible in our organizational structure by constantly adapting to the major company projects, market developments or the latest technological innovations.
