About Virgile

Your organization deserves a Notion that truly works for you: information accessible in seconds, clear processes, a team that knows where to look.

That's what I build.

My Background

Ten years in tech, first as a front-end developer specializing in SEO and accessibility, then as an Engineering Manager at Welcome to the Jungle and papernest. It was there that I trained over 50 people on Notion and understood what makes a system sustainably adopted.

In 2025, I launched my Notion consulting business, where my experience creates the most value: helping freelancers and teams regain control of their organization.

I am a certified Notion Ambassador (Essentials, Workflows, Advanced), which also allows me to offer you up to 3 months of free Notion Business.

My Method

I co-build each system with you, explaining each choice as we go. You understand what we're building as we build it, and you can evolve it yourself after delivery. Full documentation included.

What it looks like in practice

For freelancers: a workspace that centralizes your activity, a simple CRM, project tracking in one place.
For companies of 15 to 50 people: an architecture designed for your actual teams, training that guarantees adoption, internal referents trained to ensure continuity.

Recent projects include: Grace & Mila (20 people trained + 2 referents for adoption), Stefan Ifrim (client portal Notion), Gaëlle Laire (3 hours saved per week), a cohort of freelancers with 100% positive feedback.

    CONSULTING AND AUDITS
    July 2025 - Today (11 months)
    Île-de-France, France

    I help companies transform their organizational chaos into a structured and efficient system.


    **After a decade in tech as a front-end developer and then engineering manager**, I developed in-depth expertise in project structuring, team management, and **process optimization**. My sensitivity to design, SEO, and accessibility now fuels my practice as a Notion consultant.


    I specialize in supporting companies, freelancers, and individuals in structuring their ideas, projects, and activities using Notion and its ecosystem of complementary tools (Make, Zapier, etc.).

    My Services


    **Strategic Consulting**: Comprehensive audit of your processes and creation of tailor-made Notion workspaces

    **Optimization**: Redesign and improvement of existing workspaces to maximize efficiency

    **Training**: Personalized support from beginner to expert level, adapted to your business needs

    **Resources**: Free and premium Notion templates, designed for performance without unnecessary complexity

    My Approach

    Transparent and documented methodology, focused on concrete results. I favor functional minimalism: each element must have a measurable utility and contribute to your business objectives.

    January 2022 - June 2025 (3 years and 5 months)
    Paris, France
    Managed several teams over the years, from 4 to 8 people: front-end, back-end, and QA engineers of various seniority levels, from interns to senior roles.

    I focused heavily on setting up and maintaining Jira, Linear, Notion, and tools related to team velocity and organization. I provided training to team members on some of our project management tools. I led numerous workshops and retrospectives throughout the year.

    As a manager, I made sure to quickly establish lasting trust and a psychologically safe environment with my teams and stakeholders. I worked extensively on my feedback process and tried to make it as natural and bidirectional as possible.

    I also participated in numerous recruitments for technical positions, as well as in other departments.
