Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Pierre
I support industrial players in petrochemicals, chemistry, and process industries in securing and delivering complex, high-stakes projects (custom equipment, multiple interfaces, ATEX and contractual constraints).
My role is not to "run schedules," but to take operational responsibility for critical projects to avoid cost overruns, delays, quality issues, and client crises.
I typically intervene when:
- Projects become too complex for internal teams
- Several disciplines (mechanical, welding, instrumentation, suppliers) need arbitration
- Contractual deadlines and penalties become a major risk
- Management needs a reliable client-side contact
With experience on petrochemical projects worth millions of euros, I work as an external project manager, results-oriented, focused on decisions and commitment fulfillment.
What I bring:
- Management and security of critical industrial projects
- Client / EPC / supplier interface
- Technical & contractual arbitration
- Crisis management and recovery of drifting projects
- Implementation of project management and governance methods
My approach:
=> Few clients, high involvement, quick decisions.
My objective is simple: to enable you to deliver your projects without management spending their days handling emergencies.
