About Nicolas

For six years now, I've been putting on my "freelancing" hat every day to advocate for the benefits of this status and help companies work better with their external talent.

I am the **Chief Freelance Officer**, and I assist all types of companies that work with more than 10 freelancers per year in creating a tailor-made collaboration experience with their freelancers.

Because I am convinced that establishing aFreelance Cultureallows for:
  • Access to the best talents, particularly for certain IT, Finance, and Sales profiles;
  • Increased agility, especially on projects with uncertain visibility;
  • An increase in internal creativity and innovation through the hybridization of employees and freelancers;
  • Cost reduction and resource optimization at various levels.
I typically work in 4 steps:


1/ Diagnosis with various company stakeholders to assess your Freelance Culture


2/ Analysis of results and a proposed approach based on your context and challenges


3/ Creation and deployment of the 5 pillars of your Freelance Culture


4/ Monitoring its effectiveness and impact on the initially set objectives


I can also assist with specific needs: creation of freelancer onboarding/offboarding, profile sourcing, freelancer compliance, FMS integration, tender management, freelancer community animation, internal process review, monitoring and reporting, creation of a payroll company,...

Before this, I was co-founder and director of a co-living space for freelancers, which hosted a dynamic community of over 1200 freelancers in 3 years. Then, I managed a payroll company of 30 employees, achieving a turnover of over €40 million. More recently, I founded the Free-up Festival, the largest business festival in France for freelancers, bringing together over 1700 freelancers and ecosystem players.
