About Nova

Senior Executive Assistant, Office Manager, and Business Event Organizer, I have been supporting executives and management teams for over 10 years in demanding and transforming environments (reorganizations, acquisitions, post-Covid transitions).

My role goes beyond administrative support: I act as a true strategic partner, providing structure, anticipation, and serenity to management, enabling them to focus on vision and decision-making.

I have worked within leading groups such as Ingenico and Worldline, where I carried out high-impact missions:
- Strategic support for executives and board members,
- Management and animation of sites with up to 300 employees,
- Structuring and steering of an administrative department,
- Coordination of cross-functional projects (Flex Office, QVT, post-Covid organization),
- Organization of high-value managerial business and corporate events (Town Halls, executive seminars, team-building events, strategic meetings).

🔹 My areas of intervention
- Strategic executive support: managing complex agendas, preparing strategic meetings (Board meetings), interdepartmental coordination, executive reporting, confidential internal communication.
- Office Management & Site Management: administrative supervision, team coordination, vendor management, process optimization, site image and operations.
- Business Event Organization: design and management of corporate events, seminars, Town Halls, QVT days, logistical and vendor coordination, impact and satisfaction monitoring.

🔹 My way of working
Autonomous, rigorous, and proactive, I work primarily from home, with fluid remote collaboration through collaborative tools and regular exchanges.
I undertake both ad-hoc assignments and ongoing support.
