About Charlene

Business development expert with a mastery of corporate finance.

With over 10 years of experience at the intersection of project finance, the banking sector, and renewable energies, I support organizations in their transition ambitions with rigor, commitment, and a passion for positive impact.
Over the course of my career, I have had the opportunity to lead complex international projects, coordinating multicultural teams and navigating demanding environments where clarity, communication, and adaptability make all the difference. This experience has taught me to combine strategic vision with a keen eye for operational detail.
As a project manager and facilitator of various workshops, I create conditions for teams and stakeholders to move forward together, even in contexts of change. I am comfortable supporting transformation, managing long-term client relationships, and bridging the financial, technical, and human aspects of a project.
My areas of intervention:
• Your critical friend: constructive feedback on your commercial proposals, value propositions & business models.
• Transition management and change management
• Workshop and collaborative process facilitation
• Client management and project portfolio monitoring
• International team coordination
• Project finance & banking structuring in renewable energies
If you are looking for an expert who understands both numbers and people, and who knows how to turn ambitious projects into concrete realities — I would be delighted to discuss with you!
