What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values strategic thinking and offers opportunities for impactful public engagement.

I am a seasoned Public Affairs Manager with extensive experience in institutional relations and strategic communication within the banking and insurance sectors. My career has been dedicated to fostering relationships with public authorities and managing complex projects that align with organizational goals. At Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale, I lead efforts in public and government affairs, ensuring that our institutional relations are robust and effective.

Throughout my career, I have successfully navigated the intricacies of legislative and regulatory frameworks, providing strategic analyses and preparing governance structures that support decision-making at the highest levels. My previous roles at PRO BTP Group and Dexia Crédit Local have equipped me with a deep understanding of the financial landscape, enabling me to represent my organizations effectively in various professional associations and during negotiations with key stakeholders.

With a strong academic background from prestigious institutions like HEC Paris and Sciences Po, I am committed to continuous learning and professional development. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills in strategic communication, public relations, and institutional advocacy to drive impactful results.
