MADRID

En résumé

I have 17 years’ experience in the financial services business for a leasing company as for a manufacturer, in different countries. I have a global vision of the business with a strong experience in companies worldwide recognized.

I’m comfortable and I know perfectly how to move in a difficult economic environment.
Thanks to my very strong and complete experience I can work in a direct or indirect approach, in Flow business or with structured transactions (Large Value Deals, Project Finance…), from the manufacturer or the funder side, better than most of the people of my industry.
The 3 languages (French/Spanish/English) that I speak show I’m completely able to work in an International environnment, and to hold multi regional position.
I’m specialized in creating and developing business, increasing market share, permanently looking for the best way to protect the company's interests, and to meet in the meantime the customer CTQs.
I excel at explaining my point of view and at making my interlocutor accept my offer.
I have a strong sense of the company's culture and values.
My international career demonstrates that I’m able to travel, and that I have a good ability in adapting myself to different environments and cultures.

Because of my 6 Sigma Certification obtained in 2003, I know how to improve profitability and productivity by eliminating defects and improving processes.
