An introduction to Laurent Geoffroy
I am a senior, high caliber professional in Finance and Administration, with strategic and operational experience. A passionate and energetic manager, with strong complex project management skill, I have the ability to work at all level in an organization. I have an outstanding ability to drive and to make things happen.
As my experience outlined below will demonstrate, I have extensive experience in almost all finance and administrative areas:
• International Management in Finance, Operations and Human Resources
• Outsourcing deals
• Complex change management projects: processes, organizations and information systems (ERP) – Creation & management of Shared Service Centers
• Financial controls of large areas (12bnEuros sales)
• Financial communication
• Spin off activities and CFO of small company
• Audit, IPO and M&As
Please see details of the above and other roles in my CV. Along with years of managing large teams and complex situations in professional life, I also have a strong theoretical background in finance and accounting.
My personal strengths are to earn success by concentration and thoroughness, by organizing and taking responsibility. I make my own minds as to what should be accomplish and work toward it steadily, regardless of protests or distractions. Best described as: dependable, decisive, logical, persevering, practical orderly and matter-of-fact oriented, I am outstanding in conserving resources, communicating a message of reliability and stability, ensuring smooth flow of personnel and materials, making sense of difficult, detailed figures, catching errors and oversights. I enjoy justice, practical procedures, consistency, thoroughness and precision work. Impatient with requirements that do not make sense, carelessness, lack of foresight and emotionality, I can have difficulty understanding needs that differ widely from strategic decisions and override people less forceful than they are (source 360° feedback, Leadership Behavior, Turnaround Leadership).
My desire is to continue taking new professional challenges, leveraging past experience, and work in collaboration to make a positive difference as a true experience advisor for strategy and business performance enhancement and a leader in finance functions.
