About Audrey

- Expert in international mobility and social dialogue.
- Specialist in organizational transformation projects, HR support for companies repositioning in the market, I act as a true right-hand person to structure, streamline, and evolve the organization in contexts of rapid growth, reorganization, or transformation.
I identify HR challenges and impacts and propose action plans appropriate to the company's specificities.

These projects have led me to build bridges between departments and support teams in breaking down organizational silos and fostering greater unity.

My experience is mainly in industry with a strong field presence.
15 years in metallurgy.

My Offer:
- Transition management for HRD or HR Development roles (full-time or shared, in-person or remote)
- Interim management
- Shared services

****
My career has been built in transformation environments, particularly within SMEs and mid-sized companies
- under LBO where the main objective was to restore profitability,
- in family-owned groups where vision and decision-making operate over longer timeframes.

My career initially led me to international and project-oriented roles, before evolving into HR management positions, motivated by the desire to fully bear responsibility for human and organizational challenges.
I attach particular importance to:
- the impact of HR decisions on the company's overall business, and the management of complex situations while respecting human values,
- the constant search for solutions, with a balanced approach between the interests of the company and those of its employees,
- the advocacy of HR practices aligned with my values: loyalty, fairness, reciprocity, empathy, reliability, service orientation, and conviction.
