Team
I joined Surfeo in 2016, first in the Ops team, then today in charge of our business development in Europe. With our customers, we build tailor-made missions, in order to best meet their expectations and objectives, and work with their existing strengths.
I joined Surfeo in January 2020 as Key Account Manager. My role as KAM is to develop my clients' business on the European market. This is done in accordance with the strategy developed by Surfeo but also the wishes/objectives of the different customers. Working with companies with different expertise, this allows me to be in contact with many players and thus to make use of synergies to better understand the aerospace market. More concretely, the fields of machining, cabin interiors, etc., are the focus of my work.
I joined the company in 2017 and my mission is to make SURFEO and its solutions known to all players in the high-tech industries. I manage the digital environment of Surfeo. By creating adapted communication campaigns and displaying high value-added content, I improve the notoriety and visibility of SURFEO as well as our customers'. I'm also in charge to manage and train our interns that are a very important for us to develop and achieve our continual growth objectives.
As a Key Account Manager at Surfeo, I assist companies in developing their business in the European and American markets. I participate in the definition of their business strategy, identify development opportunities and follow up in order to reach their objectives. My experience at Surfeo has enabled me to acquire knowledge of cutting-edge industries, particularly in the maritime, energy and aeronautics sectors.
Creator of Surfeo in 2007, I saw SURFEO become a reference in consulting services and business development strategies. Understanding the DNA and the strategic stakes of our customers to pilot the teams, to target the right people, to seize and develop new opportunities, to ensure the training and the level of competence of our teams to always bring the best level of services to our customers here are my main missions.
I joined SURFEO with a double mission. The first one, as a KAM, is to ensure the commercial development of my clients, coming from high tech industries, on the European territory. My second mission, as a Business Developer, is to identify the development issues of the different players in order to offer a personalised service corresponding to their expectations. My missions have led me to support clients mastering complex subjects, such as :
- Preventive maintenance (AI)
- Fluid mechanics simulation (CFD)
- microelectronics for Aerospace applications
- projects in the field of defence
Account Manager at SURFEO since August 2020, my mission is to accompany my clients, from the leading industries, in their commercial development on the European market. Working on different projects, being in contact with various actors allows us to better understand the stakes of the industries in which we operate.
As Key Account Manager, my mission is to develop our clients' business in Europe and to follow the opportunities. Having strong intercommunication skills, I am very excited to work in an international environment and in a challenging industry. During my missions, I have been able to develop my clients' activities in the field of composites, avionics and power transmission systems and also to study the space market through market research.
Independent consultant since the end of 2018, based in Paris; General officer in second section, I have held numerous responsibilities in the field of in-service military equipment support (Maintenance in Operational Condition) for 38 years, mainly in naval aeronautics. Responsible for the technical support of the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle, commander of the naval air base, responsible for the design of military equipment support to the Chief of the Armed Forces Staff for the three land, naval and aeronautical environments, and finally Deputy Director of the Structure in charge of the aeronautical MCO for all State aircraft. These experiences have enriched my knowledge of the "real needs of terminal users" in the field and of industrial support issues with a deep conviction: to guarantee the continuity of this support over the life cycle at controlled costs!
