Bio
Phil Mercer
I hired Amandine in 2014 and managed her remotely as she set-up a new department in the APAC region. I was particularly impressed by Amandine's independent approach in a new and rich cross cultural environment and by her commitment to the tasks required to establish the new operation. Her positive attitude, commitment and delivery will bring considerable value to future assignments.
Benoit Ganzmann
I had the pleasure to work with and supervise Amandine for 2 years as she implemented a new collection business line. I was particularly impressed by her ability to manage ;large projects that required coordination across departments and countries and deliver them under tight deadlines. I also appreciated her clear activity report presentations to senior the management. As a team member or manager, Amandine earns therefore my recommendation.
