14 years working for Firmenich (chemical ingredients, flavours, fragrances), 3 years based in South Africa in charge of Sub-Saharan Market, and 8 years based in Geneva in charge of Middle-East region (regular business trip from Geneva to visit the clients). 3 key-words defining the expertise I got over these years: abnegation (difficult markets), negociations skills (very often in contact with C.E.O or Global Directors), and promissing results (significant growth of the markets I've been working with).
During the year 2011, I was in charge of building a new set up in the middle east region (rep.office), in order to reinforce our presence in this region and increase significantly our market shares.
CHANGES IN 2011
I left FIRMENICH in June 2011.

This Japanese multinational company, counting 4/500 employees with a Turnover of CHF 1.5 billion, is operating in the Oral Care and Cosmetics, having the HQ in Etoy, canton of Vaud. I recently have been promoted to the Head of the Business Development Units (Middle-East, Africa, Switzerland, UK, Eastern Europe, India), leading a commercial team based with me in Etoy.In charge of the P&L including 24 countries, it is a challenging position to develop our activities and bring a profitable growth to the SUNSTAR Group.
