Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I am an independent consultant specializing in operational optimization, cost reduction, and supplier management.

After several years as an entrepreneur (3 establishments) and corporate experience at AXA, I have become an expert in field analysis, process rationalization, and supplier renegotiation.

My approach is simple: measurable gains, quickly.

I primarily work with SMEs, scale-ups, and restaurants/Horeca that want to improve their profitability, structure their operations, or strengthen their organization.
