Thibault Fleischmann

MSc Mathematics Graduate | Team Strategy & Leadership at World Championship Level

Versoix, Geneva, Switzerland

About

Recently graduated with a Master’s degree in Mathematics from the University of Geneva, with a focus on probability, graph theory, stochastic modeling, and optimization. Alongside my studies, I gained unique leadership experience as Head Coach of the Swiss National Team for the World Team Championship of Warhammer 40,000, a strategy board game focused on resource optimization, risk management, and decision-making under uncertainty. In this role, I design year-long strategies, coordinate eight players, and optimize team performance in an international competitive environment. In addition, I have taught mathematics at high-school level as a long-term substitute teacher, managed youth sports teams through the Swiss Youth+Sport program, and contributed to scientific research during the CERN Summer Student Programme in 2022, where I contributed to a published paper. My strengths: analytical rigor, leadership, teaching, project management, and the ability to align teams toward ambitious goals.
