About Xavier

Experienced and mobile HR Director throughout France, I can offer you my skills acquired in the aeronautics, automotive, telecommunications, and tableware sectors.

Having worked in various environments (supervising 200 to 2000 people) such as headquarters, multi-site, or factory (including large diversified sites), on a French operational scale or Group HR management (ETI and large groups), I would adapt as quickly as possible to your challenges.

Expert in transformations, I am particularly skilled at supporting business evolution while working on social relations, leading creative negotiations, and being present on the ground daily (Lean practices).

Anticipatory and creative, I implement innovative programs to improve the organization, its management, internal communication, and work on behaviors and company culture.

Regarding the HR team, if you need to realign your teams' practices and deploy digital tools, with a focus on compliance and efficiency for managers and employees, I will manage your project optimally, as I have done before.

Currently available, contact me and I will meet your needs.
