Life must be full of challenges. Some are chosen, some are imposed. Sailing a boat was a dream and today it is a reality! Running a marathon in almost 3h30 was another! Objectives achieved! What next?
In my 20-year career I have demonstrated my obsession with customers. Whether it was in retail shops as a shop director in my 20s, or in the digital world at Apple or Treatwell in my 30s.
What is the challenge for the 40s? To see higher ? bigger ?
Operations is my area of excellence with validated experience at Treatwell where I managed operations locally and now globally. With 4 departments in my business unit, (Customer Experience, Marketplace Content, Learning & Development and Quality Assurance), I dedicate every day to optimising processes, flows, reducing operating costs, supporting the company's strategy and of course developing my teams.

Key achievements:
Lead a cross-functional business unit including content teams and customer experience teams for France, Italy and Spain. The key challenge was to transform all the local teams into two large global teams across the group. The aim was to align processes, optimise the flow between the Sales team and Content and then Account Manager, the same between CX and AM and finally to rationalise resources so as not to have to increase FTEs in proportion to Treatwell’s growth. Start of the implementation of the self-service mentality for salons and customers.

Key achievements:
Lead a cross-functional business unit including data entry team and customer service team for France. The key challenge was that both teams were brand new, with no structure, no process, no strategy, understaffed and the previous manager too junior. France was a baby market that had not yet had time to gain the experience needed to be stable. The first decisions were to hire the missing people and to implement all the fundamentals such as processes and flows. Numerous shadowings with local teams to have an overview. Decrease lead time on the marketplace to increase last minute bookings. This led to an explosion in the number of bookings, making France the 4th largest Treatwell market.
