Microsoft France
Chief Sustainability Officer
I find immense joy in learning, collaborating with kind and intelligent people from diverse backgrounds, and achieving a positive impact together.
That’s why I choose to work for companies where values like innovation, sustainability, and collaboration are more than just words or bullet points. I seek environments where the well-being and development of employees are central to success and where this commitment translates into helping our customers excel in their missions.
I began my career in finance but transitioned a decade ago to join Microsoft, diving into the fast-paced world of high-tech. At Microsoft, I held various roles in marketing, sales, and as Chief of Staff, before moving to LinkedIn to lead a team dedicated to helping clients attract and develop top talent. Realizing that IT could both exacerbate and alleviate environmental challenges, I returned to Microsoft France to spearhead their sustainability and transformation agenda, reporting directly to the CEO of Microsoft France.
After four years in this role, I decided to take a one-year sabbatical to immerse myself in agriculture. This included working on a small-scale regenerative agriculture farm, deepening my knowledge of soil health, and engaging with a range of industry stakeholders. My goal is to explore how technology can support this sector, which sits at the intersection of critical modern issues such as ecology, health, and sovereignty.
I’m also a father of two, and I love sharing my passion for the outdoors with them. We enjoy a range of mountain activities, including skiing, ski touring, long hikes, climbing, and marveling at breathtaking landscapes. We strive to live within planetary boundaries while embracing our love for nature.
