About Emmanuel

Transition manager and operational decision-maker with 20 years of experience, I structure and govern IT systems, transform IT departments, and lead transformation programs as a true Business Partner.
Accustomed to executive committee meetings and responsible budget management (€3M/year), I combine a solid technical background (infrastructure, cybersecurity, business applications) with proven management skills in transformation, M&A, and restructuring contexts within international and multi-site environments.

- Strong experience in Infrastructure projects (Examples: IAM - Identity Access Management (3000 accounts), server replacements (farms of 30 to 50), AD migration (450 accounts)).

- Numerous cross-functional projects: customer service (EDI migration), production (supervision migration), R&D/Quality (document workflow) for example.

- Management of French and EU contracts.
- Recruitment and performance improvement.
- Proven experience with partners: KPMG, Opentext, Canon, Cegeka, Tools4Ever, T-Systems, and Saviynt.
