"As BOURBON implements its transformation plan, I am happy to see Gaël Bodénès, who successfully handled new customer expectations in his previous operational roles, take on this new responsibility for BOURBON", said Jacques de Chateauvieux, Executive Chairman of BOURBON Corporation. "With Astrid de Bréon fully empowered as part of the executive team, BOURBON has an able and committed management team, at this critical time, to build a new milestone in its history."
