Description

My expertise is in managing large projects, but I also act as an IT manager (transition).

I created and deployed an end-to-end deployment project management method for BNP SA IRB on the IS of 14 banks (+ 3 years, 600 people) in Paris and Casablanca.

I implemented project and run budget control for the domain (capacity planning, budget trajectory, PAMT), strategic plans by business line over 5 years, developed sourcing tools (skills matrix, organizational transformation plan for the domain, IT job descriptions, internal recruitment and external staffing), supplier contract management (hardware, licenses, resources), reporting to the Deputy CIO of GRDF, developed team cohesion (project manager collective and S4Hana), transverse methods (project management guide for IT and business stakeholders), etc...

In summary, manage the IT support domain's activity, as a business partner for 6 business lines, supervise all major projects, manage its budget (+/- €40 million).

My career has been primarily international, in commerce, industry, banking, and insurance, client and results-oriented, prioritizing transversality and continuous improvement.
