Océane Behaghel
FINANCE MANAGER
After spending five years at EY as a consultant working in various fields (Audit, Finance, Strategy Consulting, Due Diligence), I joined the group in 2022 to support our CFO with all the issues facing a company under LBO in the middle of an acquisition phase. Forward Global has experienced tremendous external and organic growth in France and abroad in a very short space of time (going from turnover of €20 million in 2019 to €80 million in 2023).
My job requires a high degree of adaptability in the context of structuring, and consists in responding both to the commercial demands of operational staff (responding to calls for tender, CRM management, and carrying out ongoing analyses or projects on our tool) and the financial requirements of investment funds, shareholders, and bankers. This involves switching between an oversight role, particularly in relation to our group’s international offices, and more technical or legal matters, such as drafting legal documents, co-management of our group’s CSR initiatives (B-Corp certification, carbon referencing), analyses of employee headcount, drafting of slides and visual tools for presentations to investment funds, consolidation of financial data at group level (particularly in the context of quarterly or monthly closings), as well as the implementation of a new ERP system.

CONSULTANT DIRECTOR
