About Maxime

With over 15 years of project management experience within French CAC 40 multinational companies such as BOUYGUES, SANOFI, IPSEN, and ENGIE, as an IT Project Director, I am looking for new challenges.

An engineering graduate from the Ecole Polytechnique de Marseille in 2011, I am also an independent consultant and an Advance Senior PMO, specializing in project management. From creating applications to specific business software, from implementing ERPs to coordinating adoption programs, I have successfully led a complex migration program for collaboration tools and communication infrastructure for over 7,000 users in an English-speaking international context. Currently a service manager at ENGIE IT and a transverse project manager, I am responsible for the operational monitoring of the Microsoft 365 tenant, hosting more than 100,000 employees.

I have excellent command of English, both spoken and written, and I am recognized for my communication skills, my ability to manage stress, and my effective leadership in complex environments.
