À propos de Caroline
Experienced pharmaceutical professional with a track record in leading organizational transformations across EMEA, particularly in M&A, divestitures, and restructuring. My career spans commercial operations, R&D, supply chain, quality, and HR—where I act as a strategic bridge between executive leadership and operational teams.
Certified in Change Management (Prosci) and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, I design and execute pragmatic, scalable, people-centered programs. Whether driving integration or reorganization, I operate with a deep understanding of matrix environments, regulatory constraints, and cross-cultural dynamics.
Known for clear communication, structured governance, and collaborative leadership, I help organizations align with strategic goals while ensuring business continuity and stakeholder engagement. I also integrate digital and AI tools (e.g. RPA, Proxima) to amplify impact and sustainability.
I’m now seeking a senior transformation or change management role to contribute to long-term value creation and operational excellence within a purpose-driven organization.
