Summary
Olivier Poyen is a procurement and IT governance leader with 14 years of experience driving indirect, ground CAPEX and IT vendor performance for CMA CGM and earlier IT audit roles at Société Générale. He blends deep audit and regulatory experience (including FED and MAS assignments) with hands-on IT knowledge—Python, UML and IT urbanism—to align procurement, contracts and SLA management with operational risk controls. As Vice President Procurement he oversees complex vendor ecosystems, licensing (notably Microsoft EA) and CAPEX sourcing while historically leading end-user support and contract functions. Known for translating audit findings into pragmatic procurement and performance improvements, he also has a background in BI and functional architecture from consulting roles. Based in the Greater Marseille area, he combines corporate governance rigor with technical fluency to bridge finance, IT and supplier partners. A detail some may not expect: his career progression shows a rare mix of frontline IT support management, senior contract stewardship and regulatory audit leadership within a single large shipping group.
