I launched a restaurant in China and drive a team of 10, we opened a second restaurant 4 months before the milestone.
I co-launched a company in France and set up a new strategy that rocketed to turnover by 50%.
In 2019 I co-created a company of French made food complements such as proteins, vitamins, fibers. I developed the aspects of the company, in the one hand all the digital environment and strategy in the second hand the business strategy. For the digital side I developed the environment by implementing a new website (PrestaShop), created soft brand design (Illustrator), managed email marketing (sendinblue), managed Facebook ads and Instagram (Canvas, Illustrator). About the business side, I built up a B2B sales strategy. I focused on local gyms owner in order to take advantage of the relational aspects (French made + regional brand). I also focused my negotiation on three aspects: time to delivery, personalized products and group sales. The turnover increased by 50%.

I have experience in project Management which is also my Master of science major. I worked at Société Générale, a French bank where I coordinated a project called ATOLL as change manager. This project was the development and implementation of a leased liabilities management tool according to IFRS 16 standard. Following a planification made by using Pmbok, I set up deliverable according to milestones but I also created technical documents for the company users by using PowerPoint and Camtasia. I used Jive, Sharepoint and Office365 to share informations and coordinate teams.I  coordinated by calls the production center located in Romania.

In China I gain a strong entrepreneurial mindset and role with the launch of a French restaurant and with the position of CEO right hand. I can tell it was an opportunity to have a 360° management from managing a team of 10, setting up operation processes (SOP), improve overall quality, improve costs and production, meet stakeholders and suppliers.
It is important for me to gain responsibility, gain knowledge, continuously learn and share my whole experience in a goodwill position. I am fine with working in a company that is at early stage, where processes have to be established and where being polyvalent is required. A caring company with its employees and a willing to move forward as a team is important. International environment is a big plus just like learning Ukrainian / Russian.
