About Hugues

Hello,

I have been a buyer for over 10 years now, working on several categories:
- Financial optimization: EBITDA improvement, OPEX
- IT: software, services, hosting, licenses, hardware
- Logistics, industrial and Supply Chain: temporary work, equipment, PPE, handling equipment
- Travel & Expenses: travel agencies, negotiations, tools
- Communication / advertising / marketing: agency sourcing, SEO/SEA sourcing, campaigns
- Legal & consulting: software purchasing and firm sourcing

Focused on portfolio performance, it is essential to listen to internal stakeholders. Indeed, the Purchasing department is a support department, assisting the company's production by providing the necessary goods and services for its operation.
Internal customer satisfaction is the primary mission with the main objectives:
• to carry out the purchasing and procurement of G&S within deadlines, with quality according to the company's strategy
• to reduce production and non-production purchasing costs with different purchasing policies
• to collect, map, and analyze various data
• to design efficient operational solutions
• to manage supplier relationships
• to propose innovative solutions

Do not hesitate to contact me if needed,
Thank you

Experience

  • Groupe CVE
    EBITDA Buyer
    ENERGY AND UTILITIES
    June 2025 - Today (1 year)
    Marseille, France
    The purpose of this mission is to improve the company's financial visibility.
    To achieve this, improving EBITDA and therefore OPEX was fundamental.
    The mission was a success.

    The list of partners is not exhaustive, including suppliers, financial or legal partners, etc.

  • Groupe ADSN
    IT Buyer
    SOFTWARE PUBLISHING
    April 2020 - November 2024 (4 years and 7 months)
    Venelles, France
    The ADSN group is the main player for notarial offices, with strong regulatory and technological constraints. The IT buyer position is key within the group's Purchasing department. Indeed, all production elements are subject to IT, mainly through licenses/software but also through services.
    Being an IT buyer in the ADSN group was a strong and intense experience, with advanced projects in terms of
    technology, security, and production.
    It required constant collaboration with operational staff, project managers, security teams, etc...
  • Groupe Hopps
    Buyer
    LOGISTICS AND SUPPLY CHAIN
    January 2017 - March 2020 (3 years and 2 months)
    Aix-en-Provence, France
    This experience allowed me to better appreciate the industrial environment with a strong logistics component (240 sites).
    This group was experiencing significant financial losses. The Purchasing mission was all the more important, with a strong aspect of Economies Generated / Expenses Ratio. We therefore had to assess internal operational requests while balancing them against our economic imperative.
