- Sectoral Versatility: My career covers the entire lifecycle, from Subsea Oil & Gas (TotalEnergies, Chevron) to innovative Floating Wind projects (Principle Power).
My areas of intervention:
- Project Management & Tender Management
- EPCI project management and coordination of international technical teams.
- Management of tenders, contracts, and interfaces.
- Budget monitoring, scheduling, and stakeholder reporting.
- RAMS & Process Safety Expertise
