Let me introduce myself
"After studying Business with a specialization in Marketing at Toulouse Business School, I started out as a marketing and communications assistant for Eric Kayser bakeries. After 4 extremely rewarding professional years, I decided to change sector by working for a few months in tourism before returning to my first love: artisan bakery. I've now been working for 4 years in the Campaillette and Copaline network marketing department at Grands Moulins de Paris."
When and why did you join Grands Moulins de Paris?
Passionate about gastronomy and fascinated by craftsmanship, I wanted to work again in the bakery sector, which I had discovered during my first corporate experience. So I joined Grands Moulins de Paris in January 2019, motivated by the desire to enhance the admirable work that artisan bakers do on a daily basis.
What does your job involve?
I'm currently Networks Group Manager. With Manon Germain, Networks Product Manager, we are in charge of developing Grands Moulins de Paris' 2 bakery networks, Campaillette and Copaline. Our aim is to support independent artisan bakers via our brands, to help them develop their sales and build customer loyalty.
With this in mind, we're putting in place a range of tools to help them bring their bakeries to life and better communicate their expertise to consumers.
We work with a wide range of internal and external contacts to carry out our missions: Digital Marketing, Purchasing, Quality, DIP and external service providers such as graphic designers, associations... Our field of intervention therefore covers a variety of issues, both operational and strategic, concerning bakery animation, new product development, digital visibility, brand awareness...
No two days are ever the same, and that's what makes this department so special!
What's special about your career at Grands Moulins de Paris?
My partner and I had a project in mind for several years: to travel the world by bike. The desire to make this project a reality was reinforced during the COVID period. A few months after discussing it with my managers, in July 2021, I set off on the roads of Europe and South America to make my dream come true. And all this with the assurance of being able to return to Les Grands Moulins de Paris 1 year later, as I had been granted a sabbatical.
It's hard to sum up in just a few words this incredible experience, which was marked by memorable encounters, breathtaking landscapes and the challenge of surpassing oneself! Since September, I've been back in the Networks Department, with the added bonus of being promoted to Networks Group Manager.
What's your fondest memory of Grands Moulins de Paris?
