Brussels Metropolitan Area
Having 2 nationalities (French – German), but having done my school and university curricula in Belgium (Liège), I studied civil engineer (electromechanical specialty) at the University of Liège. Speaking fluently 3 languages (French, English, German), I have good knowledge in Flemish. My career led me to work in Germany, France and now Belgium. I spent much of my career in industrial mechanical components (German companies), with the aim of achieving more integrated systems by customers, providing specific solution, and thus a consistent added value. I was active in following activities sectors: chemical industry, electrical industry, leisure, waste,.... I held CEO position with P&L responsibilities? Looking for a new challenge, I would like to lead a team as manager in a small and growing company with international activities. Ideally, the company I am looking for should work in an “industrial” business, have innovative products and the ambition to reach a strong market position.
