Career

Twelve years in EdTech.

From the North of France, trained at Sciences Po Lille. First steps in retail (Auchan, Luxembourg), then telecom operator Nordnet. Switch to EdTech with EF English Live in June 2014, eight years in Barcelona, from Inside Sales to leading EMEA operations. April 2023, I joined goFLUENT, a fast-growing French SME to build the public sector market in France & Belgium. Madrid today, builder rather than operator.

— A career that doesn't look like a plan. Quite the opposite. And that's what makes it readable.

Experience

From client field work to commercial leadership of a segment. Always on the same red thread: EdTech, languages, B2B key accounts.
