About Matthieu

CEO / COO, I intervene in critical phases:turnaround, carve-out, post-acquisition, hyper-growth.
P&L-driven:cash security, 30/60/90 day execution, delivery of quantified objectives.

In detail:

  • I take charge ofoperations and P&Lto reach a new stage: recovery, structuring, acceleration.
*General Managementexperience (industry/energy/consumer): governance, supply & production, go-to-market, finance/cash.
  • **30/60/90 Method**: rapid diagnosis, prioritized action plan, weekly execution, KPIs & rituals.

Key Results:

  • Scaling up (Revenue 6 → 100 M€), return to profitability (Net Income 3 M€ in 36 months), doubling of teams (100→200 FTE).
  • I work hand-in-hand with management and teams; typical mandate 60–120 days.

"Bonus" Option:

Useful differentiator: integration of eco-design/LCA of products when it improves cost/service/quality (EPD/ISO 14044) without degrading the P&L.

Terms:

Daily rate or/and fixed fees with weekly cadence:
  • Flash Diagnosis 10 days at €12,900 excl. VAT
  • 60 / 90 / 100 day Packs.
