I am now working as an export manager in a big SMB of the food industry. Travelling and negotiating in a crosscultural environment is what I wanted to do from the outset of my studies. Without my IPD degree, I would never have had such a position of responsibility. With the backdrop of the economic crisis, being hired before I even graduated was beyond my expectations.

What inspired me most and may also interest future International Project Development applicants is the wide range of skills that are fostered in this master. I for example, have a Bachelor degree in Finance, and I am currently working in my dream job in the media & advertising industry both in Paris and China. As a Media Planner for Carat China, a French advertising & communication company, my key client is P&G. I work with a team of two and am in charge of national advertising expenditure and channels for the P&G brand.

After a Master’s degree in finance, I joined the IPD program for its international aspect and the contents of its courses which combined both project management and corporate finance. The teaching has allowed me to complete ideally my training and to direct my professional project thanks to an offer of courses extremely rich and diversified. The internationalization of the program allowed me to do my internship as project manager officer junior on a European large-scale project at AXA in Paris. And that led me to work today in Brussels as consultant in project management at Alten Belgium, which is part of the ALTEN group, a European leader in consulting for advanced technology and IT. I believe that the IPD program gave me the necessary means to begin an international career.
