Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Agnès
For 15 years, I've worked in environments where operations make all the difference => hospitality, coliving, and restaurants.
I co-founded OpenHouse from scratch (10 houses, 150 tenants, successful exit in 2024), scaled Poetic Stay from 40 to 120 units in 9 months, and supported Sol Semilla in its operational and financial structuring.
What drives me: partnering with leaders to build robust organizations. How? Clear processes, functional teams, and transparent financial vision.
I work as a Fractional COO, meaning in long-term assignments, with the involvement of a senior COO and the flexibility of a freelancer. I cover all operational areas: finance, HR, supply chain, customer relations, B2B — and I adapt to your actual needs.
If this resonates, let's talk.
