Since 1986, active in various sectors, as Chief Legal Officer or Business Development Manager, as employee or self-employed, I am enthusiastic to work in new companies and new industries, facing challenges or building exciting growth opportunities different from the traditional models.

I have gained an extensive and valuable experience in management in an international environment.

Throughout these years, I have developed deep insight into the implementation and management of performing organization and processes, with a good legal background in business environment, in major or impactful projects in various domains (pre-post M&A, P/E, IPRs, Strategy & Change Management, BD, business restructuring, transformational projects, …).

Excellent team leader, with good communication and negotiation skills, I highly appreciate achieving excellent results and performances working with people.

Every new project is an invitation to embark on an unexpected journey. A mix of materials and influences.

May we talk & share thoughts about your objectives, strategy, means and expectations?

Looking forward to reading or hearing from you, I wish you a nice day.

Kind regards,

Arnaud
