Summary
Becoming part of the intergovernmental organization EUMETSAT perfectly aligns with my growing and deep interest in climatology and resonates with my strong European identity feeling.
I can't wait to get the chance to contribute as a Programme Management Engineer with my experience, developed in the automotive sector, which has strengthened my skills across diverse roles, such as program manager, sales manager, supply chain manager and industrial project manager over the last 20 years.
During that time, I acquired strong leadership across diverse departments to solve challenges and meet objectives considering risk management. I use excellent coordination skill within all regions and within different management levels to forster collaboration and achieve results in giving delays.
Strategic analysis, constructive problem-solving orientation and adaptability to change, lessons learned and continuous process improvements drive are also key for success from my perspective.
