About Vincent

Project Manager MOA/MOE with over 10 years of experience in managing complex industrial projects, I lead high-stakes programs for demanding sectors: aeronautics, automotive, special vehicles, and technological innovation.

I am involved in the entire project cycle: scoping, planning, governance, risk management, budget monitoring, team coordination, reporting, and client relations. Experienced in transverse management, I unite multidisciplinary teams (engineering, production, purchasing, quality, R&D) and ensure objectives are met in constrained environments.

I also created and managed an R&D department (€5 million annual budget), recruited teams, structured technological partnerships (MOUs/NDAs), and led innovation development up to prototyping.

My approach: rigor, anticipation, clear communication, and the ability to secure projects by balancing technical aspects, costs, and deadlines.

I can assist you with:
• Managing an industrial project or program
• Ensuring client interface and project governance
• Structuring or strengthening an R&D organization
• Implementing tools, processes, reporting, and risk management
• Accelerating development, prototyping, or industrialization
• Coordinating multidisciplinary teams
• Taking over a struggling project and bringing it under control

Immediately available for remote work.
