About Maxence

Supply Chain & Operations Manager with 7 years of experience in consulting (KEPLER Consulting), I support Supply, Operations, and Procurement departments in their transformation and performance improvement projects.

I help organizations achieve measurable results quickly by undertaking projects that require structuring, analysis, and acceleration:
• Supply Chain & Operations Optimization (operational & logistics flows, inventory optimization, S&OP / MPS planning, logistics & industrial master plans, industrial cost calculation, warehousing, transport, etc.)
• Field Performance (productivity routines, LEAN, field performance management, etc.)
• Procurement & Design-to-Cost (costing, procurement strategy, functional and value analysis, supplier portfolio optimization, etc.)
• Organization & PMO / Program Management
(project structuring, strategic scoping, business/IT coordination, roadmaps, governance, executive reporting, steering committees/executive committees, deliverable assurance)

I combine a strong business-oriented approach (understanding the reality on the ground, flows, operational constraints) with rigorous consulting methods (structuring, scoping, clear communication, premium deliverable production).

Examples of significant results achieved
• Sustainable inventory reduction: - 20%
• Service level improvement: + 15 to + 30%
• Productivity increase: + 20 to + 30%
• Reduction in production delays: - 30%
• €3M in short-term inventory gains (taskforce)
• €5M in CAPEX/OPEX synergies

I am particularly effective on projects requiring:
• a high degree of autonomy,
• cross-functional management (production, supply chain, procurement, finance, IT, etc.)
• rapid skill development,
• a link between business and IT (S&OP, digital twins, management tools, dashboards…),
• concrete and measurable impact

Available quickly — I would be delighted to discuss your challenges.

Experience

  • KEPLER Consulting
    Supply Chain & Operations Manager – Consulting
    CONSULTING AND AUDITS
    February 2018 - June 2025 (7 years and 4 months)
    Paris, France
    From 2018 to 2025, I progressed from Consultant to Manager at KEPLER Consulting, supporting industrial, Supply Chain, and Operations departments in their transformation programs. I participated in nearly 30 end-to-end missions in Europe and internationally, playing a central role in structuring, executing, and securing performance trajectories.

    My expertise covers the entire Supply Chain and Operations spectrum: operational and logistics flow optimization (e.g., warehousing), inventory reduction, S&OP / MPS planning, productivity improvement (Lean, field performance management routines), and service level enhancement. I also contributed to defining logistics & industrial master plans, CAPEX/OPEX scenarios, industrial cost calculations (PRI), and high-performing target operational organizations in complex, multi-site environments.

    I provided strong project management as a senior PMO, mastering Steering Committee/Executive Committee governance, executive reporting, business/IT coordination, and risk management. I also managed and coached internal and client teams, ensuring alignment and consistent delivery.

    In parallel, I led Procurement & Design-to-Cost initiatives (costing, sourcing strategies, BOM optimization, sustainable procurement, supplier risks) as well as Innovation / R&D projects (portfolio rationalization, process standardization, Green Sciences).

    This experience allowed me to generate measurable impacts: inventory reduction (-20%), service level improvement (+15–30%), productivity increase (+20–30%), reduction in production delays (-30%), several million euros in CAPEX/OPEX synergies, etc. — with a direct contribution to operational performance, supply chain resilience, and industrial competitiveness of organizations.

    May 2016 - May 2017 (1 year)

    Within logistics operations, I led several continuous improvement projects aimed at enhancing productivity, quality, and operational ergonomics:

    - Redesign of order picking lines,
    - Optimization of flows and product assignment,
    - Reduction of operator travel and associated costs (replenishments, picking),
    - Improvement of workstation ergonomics and operational standards.

    These initiatives contributed to increased productivity, reduced operational costs, and improved reliability of logistics processes.
