À propos de Nicolas

Strategic Procurement & Value Chain Leader | DORA • ESG • TPRM • SRM

Procurement executive with 15+ years of leadership across telecom, media, and insurance. I transform procurement into a strategic value driver, delivering measurable business outcomes while ensuring regulatory excellence (DORA, ESG, DPA). My expertise combines strategic sourcing with program management discipline (Prince2, AgilePM, Scrum).

🔹 Regulatory Excellence (DORA | ESG | TPRM) I design compliance frameworks that transform regulatory requirements into competitive advantages while strengthening operational resilience and streamlining supplier governance.

🔹 Strategic Value Creation I lead transformative sourcing initiatives delivering substantial cost optimization while enhancing service quality and supply chain resilience, aligning procurement with C-level priorities.

🔹 Digital Transformation I drive procurement digitalization enhancing transparency and strategic insight through advanced analytics and automation, creating unprecedented agility.

🔹 Supplier Relationship Excellence I transform vendor management into strategic partnerships driving innovation and long-term value through collaborative governance models.

Leadership Philosophy: Procurement da l'âme I believe in procurement with soul—where analytical excellence meets human insight, and commercial acumen aligns with purpose. This philosophy transforms procurement from cost center to strategic business partner.

Why Organizations Select Me: • Strategic Vision: Anticipating market and regulatory shifts • Implementation Excellence: Translating vision into measurable results • Business Acumen: Speaking the language of the C-suite • People Leadership: Building high-performing teams • Digital Fluency: Leveraging technology to transform operations
