Executive Director, Page Personnel and Michael Page Zurich
After having worked for recruitment agencies in Europe and Asia for several years, I started work at PageGroup as an Executive Manager. My first task was to set up a new office in Monaco. In the first five months, I worked at our Paris office in order to build up a relationship with my French and international colleagues and with colleagues doing similar work. The office in Monaco officially opened in October 2008. I was appointed Director in January 2011 and given responsibility for the Département Alpes-Maritimes, where I set up the second office in the region and the eighth Michael Page office in France. In January 2014 I was promoted to Senior Director before being asked to lead Michael Page Zurich and become a member of the Swiss Executive Board. Since January 2018 I took on the role of Executive Director. In July 2019 I became Head of Page Personnel and Michael Page Zurich.
