TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF?
I am a seasoned finance professional with two decades of experience that have traversed the intricate realms of financial audit, strategy, finance and risk management consulting within the financial sector. My journey commenced in the vibrant financial landscape of Paris, where I contributed my expertise to industry giants like Deloitte and Accenture.
I pivoted towards the dynamic sphere of green energy, assuming a key role as a Senior Investment Advisor at Engie, a global Independent Power Producer (IPP). My journey continued to scale new heights when I joined Cubico Sustainable Investments, a leading powerhouse in the green energy investment domain located in the heart of London.
Throughout my career, I built profound business and financial acumen and delved into the intricate domain of human resources. I was responsible for recruiting and nurturing talented teams in various capacities, understanding that human capital is the cornerstone of corporates’ success.
Today, as the co-founder of ‘EnableGreen,’ a trailblazing ESG and Sustainable Recruitment Agency, I specialise in identifying and securing top-tier talents in ESG and Sustainability, Climate Change, Green Energy, CleanTech, Responsible Investments, and Sustainable Finance to induce ESG transformation across sectors. My journey, while rooted in economics and finance engineering, has blossomed into a passionate commitment to sustainability and impact.
I realised that cultivating and enticing the appropriate skillset is of utmost importance in driving sustainability and achieving the global Net Zero ambition and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME A YEAR OR TWO, WHAT PIECE OF ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE YOURSELF?
Encourage myself to take the bold step of establishing a purpose-driven business sooner, one that addresses the pressing global challenges of our times.

WHAT IS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND YOUR BUSINESS?
The inspiration behind my business venture originates from my tenure in the Renewable Energy sector as an Investor. I discerned the urgent requirement for dedicated and proficient experts to guide corporate sustainability endeavors. To meet this demand, I founded an executive search enterprise with a distinct emphasis on connecting organisations spanning a spectrum of sectors with exceedingly talented professionals in the job market. Our clients include Banks, Private Equity firms, Venture Capitalists, Insurance companies, and a broad spectrum of industries encompassing Energy, Infrastructure, FMCG, Retail, Real Estate, and Healthcare.

My vision for the next five years involves dedicated endeavors to position EnableGreen as the premier talent acquisition partner in the global ESG and Sustainability arena. We are committed to catering to our client’s diverse needs across various sectors and empowering candidates in their pursuit of sustainability initiatives and careers.
WHAT IS THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE YOU’VE FACED SO FAR?
The primary challenge that EnableGreen has encountered thus far is closing the skills gap within a continuously evolving sustainability market that is still in the early stages of structuring. Finding the appropriate talents demands a degree of flexibility and adaptability, involving a reevaluation of career transformation and education on our part and on the side of our clients and candidates.
