Director, Michael Page and Page Personnel Lausanne
My career path
After one year of sales experience in agribusiness in the United States, I joined Page Personnel in Neuilly-sur-Seine in April 2010 as a consultant within the Commercial & Marketing division. I progressed rapidly on the management track: Manager then Executive Manager. At the start of 2015, I expressed the wish to work at the international level. PageGroup offered me the chance to move to the Swiss office in Lausanne.
My position
I am in charge of the Sales & Marketing, Office and Management Support and Finance division of the Lausanne office.
My tasks
Managing a team of several consultants/managers: recruitment, training, guidance, improving the skills of the team (in expertise and leadership), career development
Representing Michael Page and Page Personnel as a full-service provider and regularly taking part in networking events
Recruitment tasks: managing the recruitment process from A to Z, up to the final placement
Business development and defining a business strategy: identification, prospecting and customer retention
Key Account Manager of clients at the national level
Management of a profit centre and its economic viability
Project management, on-going improvement of procedures and developing the inter-brand/division synergies
My advice
Joining PageGroup is a real career opportunity thanks to the training offered and possibilities for development (various career paths, international mobility, and within the specific brands.) PageGroup is a meritocratic company that allows you to take the initiative, and take on responsibility for your own business. Your sales skills will help you to meet and exceed the objectives. With the support of your managers, you can grow at your own pace. For this, you must like working in a team, and be willing to learn, grow, and question yourself. The profession has a good rythm: regularity, organisation, management of priorities and resilience are key qualities for success.
