About Lucas

With a Master's degree in Purchasing from Kedge Business School in Bordeaux, I have gained experience in major industrial groups (CMA CGM, AIRBUS) and in a consulting and auditing firm (PwC, a member of the "Big Four"). I now wish to leverage my skills and knowledge to assist companies with their procurement needs.

On the operational side, I possess solid knowledge in indirect purchasing (office supplies, IT equipment, travel management software, and car-sharing solutions).
I also have experience in technical purchasing (chemicals, paints, engineering and measurement intellectual services).

On the consulting and organizational side, I can conduct a diagnosis/audit of current purchasing practices and develop a corresponding purchasing strategy.
I can also support clients in the digitalization of the purchasing process and function by advising and training users on new SRM or P2P tools.

Naturally curious, dynamic, and rigorous, I am easily adaptable to any challenges a company may face, and my flexibility allows me to complete projects while respecting deadlines.
