Bio
Mathilde started her career in Procurement. She worked as a buyer in the automotive industry, managing supplier relationships, sourcing new suppliers for innovative projects and leading contract negotiations. Seeking for an experience abroad, she then joined Siemens in Germany and led several international projects helping Siemens’ regional organisations to develop their Procurement methods, processes and tools. Part of her job at Siemens, she also established a buying group, bundling together the purchases of production equipment across North America and developing a common purchasing strategy.
She has a keen interest in fighting exclusion and inequality. She has volunteered for a number of charities and social enterprises acting from homelessness to children’s charities. She co-developed the business development strategy for Aurore, a French charity supporting population at risk.
Mathilde holds an MSc in Management with distinction from Grenoble Ecole de Management and studied Industrial Engineering for a year in Munich’s Fachhochschule.
