With my team I help our foreign clients with installations in France and those who want to settle in France. I guide them to find the best solutions for their business following the French immigration, social security and income tax legislations applicable to their mobile employees. The recent events and the developments of new technologies make the international mobility way more complex than before reducing the borders.

Within EY France global mobility service line, I am leading our compliance service center. This excellence center works with 25+ people all over the year and even 50+ during the pick season and represents around 80% of the PAS France compliance work. With my teams in India, in Tunisia and in France, I make sure that we deliver the best quality of services to our client for them to be compliant as well as their mobile employees. The challenge on top of the fact that the teams in Tunisia and in India must deliver the best quality of service for our clients is to make sure that these 3 teams from 3 different cultures will collaborate. This is why from the beggining I have implemented a work project mode for the French team in order to make sure they will not work with Tunisia and with India in silos but based on a more efficient approach. We also work on the automation of some tasks with dedicated teams among EY in order to always improve our profitability but also the well being of our teams. A great achievement has been to transform our pick season called the "busy season" to allow all our people in the 3 countries to stop working more than 12 hours a day and during week ends and bank holidays. This is a good example of this new organization. We plan to get the 3 teams grow each year in order to manage 90%+ of the French PAS Tax compliance work and to automate always more. Show less
