Bio
Thomas Tillotson
I worked closely with Mathieu over my past six years with Meggitt (retiring in 2015). Mathieu was in charge of our largest and most complex facility in Fribourg Switzerland. Over the years I came to know Mathieu as a consumate Human Resources professional with an exceptional work ethic and unflinching ethical convictions. I relied on his insight and counsel and was never disappointed. Beyond a solid grasp of HR Principles, he was well-grounded in a variety of business disciplines which made him an extremely valuable business partner and resource. A skilled communicator, Mathieu was extremely adept at forging constructive and valued relationships with a diverse contingent of clients. He has a natural style that draws individuals to him and allows him to get the best from their inherent skills and potential. I found Mathieu to be well-organized and prepared with an ability to proactively plan and anticipate. I consider Mathieu to be a thoroughly exceptional HR professional and, most importantly, a trusted and valued friend.

From August 2013 to October 2015, I had the true pleasure to partner with Mathieu initially driving the deployment of Success Factors and afterwards enhancing some HR policies for Fribourg site. Looking beyond HR, Mathieu combines strategic thinking and strong execution for example when implementing the global LEAN initiatives and transforming the organization of the Fribourg site. Very dedicated, Mathieu acts with strong values and high ethics; In many occasions, I did appreciate his availability and active listening skills to brainstorm and reach the right solution. I would be pleased to recommend him to any employer looking for HR Manager or HR Business Partner with solid business understanding and people competencies.
