Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Expert in sustainability, climate, and biodiversity, I support companies and financial institutions in designing and implementing ESG strategies aligned with European and international regulations. With leadership experience at Iceberg Data Lab and DNV, as well as senior advisory roles at World Kinect Energy Services and EY, I address all sustainability issues: ESG reporting (CSRD, ESRS, TNFD, SFDR/PAI), double materiality, regulatory alignment, Net-Zero strategy, and integration of nature-related risks into corporate governance.

I have led the development of ESG services in France and Europe, managed P&Ls, structured robust methodologies combining environmental data, scientific analyses, and regulatory requirements, and advised boards of directors on strategic decisions. I have also supported large groups in the sustainable transformation of their value chains: responsible procurement (ISO 20400), human rights due diligence, social audits, LCA, substantiation of environmental claims, and ESG traceability.

Previously, I advised governments and international institutions on their climate strategies, access to green finance, and the implementation of public policies compliant with the Paris Agreement.

I bring strategic, technical, and operational expertise, with a recognized ability to translate complex requirements into concrete, measurable solutions tailored to organizational needs.
