About Benjamin

I have over 15 years of experience supporting executive committees, boards of directors, and operational management on the following topics: growth strategies, executive sparring partner, strategic opportunity analysis, organizational design, operational efficiency, marketing strategy, CSR strategy, decarbonization strategy, and carbon footprint assessment. I have worked in various sectors.

I have complemented this expertise with operational and financial management, including experience as Deputy CEO CFO (Chief Financial Officer, encompassing HR and legal functions).

Finally, I am a private investor and an advisor/board member for startups and startup founders.

I am available to support any strategic thinking regarding your markets and organization, integrating an approach and understanding of your company's entire ecosystem. As a sparring partner, I aim to create value for the entities I support and to help the executives I work with progress and feel more at ease.
