About Manon

General Manager with international experience across premium hospitality groups in London, Paris, and global markets, specialising in restaurant openings, operational strategy, profitability improvement, and beverage (wine) program development.

I hold a Master’s degree in Wine & Hospitality Management from EHL, combining academic knowledge with hands-on operational leadership.

I work with restaurant owners and operators on high-impact, short-term advisory missions focused on improving financial performance, strengthening operational structures, and optimising end-to-end guest experience.

My expertise spans P&L analysis, operational efficiency, service model design, pre-opening execution, and beverage program optimisation, with a strong focus on wine strategy and F&B profitability.

My approach is structured, analytical, and execution-driven, translating operational realities into clear, actionable strategies that improve performance and profitability.

Based in London, working with clients across the UK and France, and available for remote assignments as well as occasional on-site missions in Paris.
