Mes expériences professionnelles m'ont permis de développer des compétences tant marketing et communication que commerciale dans l'univers des produits pour les marchés grand public et professionnel, liés à l'équipement et la décoration de l'habitat, du bâtiment et de l'espace public.
Mon ambition est de mettre à profit ces acquis dans une fonction de Direction Vente, Marketing et Communication (P&L, plan marketing, plan communication, encadrement, plan de formation et prescription, développement et lancement produit/gamme) alliant sens du résultat et management dans un contexte international.
La diversité des secteurs d’activité rencontrés lors de mes expériences professionnelles m’a permis de développer de fortes capacités d’adaptation et d’acquisition de compétences. Rigueur dans l'analyse et efficacité dans l'action, force de proposition et de conviction, intelligence sociale ainsi qu'une expérience des relations de travail au niveau international sont des atouts que je me propose de mettre à votre service.
