Front Officer since 2007 I gradually acquired a solid experience by managing different public debt portfolios (10billion direct debt, 2billion derivatives, 3billion guarantees) throughout the market evolution and the crisis of the 2 last decades.Thanks to a specific delegation of the Minister of Finance, I can directly negotiate and conclude financial operation with a a large base of dealers and investors, mainly based in Europe.I make a daily use of different funding tools on the short term (credit lines and assimilate, commercial paper, hybrid products) and the long term (bond program, Schuldschein and other bilateral with banks and supras (EIB). I cover the funding needs of the Region (about 1,5billion yearly) in a reverse inquiry mode and a presence on the markets all year long.I constantly develop new financial tools (as for example the forward start schuldschein and bonds in which the Region is pioneer) and extend the partnerships with different issuers and investors. I also developed a credit analysis based system for the granting and the follow up of guarantees and offer an advisory financial (and confidential) support to the Government. Working with agility and anticipation, I propose new strategies and operational frames to the Cabinet and the Minister. I am able to convince and to report on the results to the authorities (Cabinet, strategic committee), the financial partners (credit committees) and the control entities (which S&P).I am very proud that the quality of my work has helped to maintain the rating of the Region in the AA group throughout the years and the crisis. S&P has qualified the financial management as "prudent and sophisticated" and having a “very positive impact” on the rating.The financial results are reported in the Front Office Bulletin. Those results are not only based on a strong confidence relation with the different Ministers of Finance but also on the support of my Front Office team. I had the opportunity to recruit and to manage this team on a horizontal way, asking each of them to develop an own expertise, taking responsibilities and helping to achieve our goals together. I naturally inspire trust and respect that I can reinforce on the long run. I can endorse large responsibilities. I am also ready to travel and for expatriation.
