Roche France
- Directeur Financier
La Rochelle
1996 - maintenant
I am Finance Director of Roche Paris (> 1000 employees, 1.4 bn€ sales) since October 2003. My current responsibilities cover Finance activities, Market Research and Sales Force Effectiveness, Procurement and, in a coordination and supervision role, IT activities. I am a member of the Pharma Medicines Finance Leadership Team along with functional and regional finance heads.
From February to May 2012, I was acting ad interim as General Manager of Roche France, this has been an extremely valuable professional and personal experience.
I joined Roche Paris in late 1996 as Head of Accounting, Reporting and Manufacturing Controlling.
I started my career with Price Waterhouse in 1984 (mainly in France but also in the UK), where I gained deep experience in industry and in the pharmaceutical business, as the senior manager in charge of the Roche and BMS assignments for the whole French entities.
I am a Certified Public Accountant and holds a diploma from the French High Business School, ESSEC (1984).
