Production & Events
The Production & Events team proudly wears two hats. It manages the client setup from start to finish, from video shoots to publishing lead-optimised landing pages. At the same time, it designs and produces events that bring our audiences together and bring ambitious projects to life.
Marie Roche
I handle the entire production and events side of the business. From full project management to the initial client conversations, as well as organising and running the shoot itself, this role gives me a complete overview of each project and the satisfaction of seeing it come to life. Being in direct, constant contact with clients is genuinely what drives me and puts the relational side at the heart of my job. At the same time, the diversity of clients and events keeps me challenged on a daily basis.
- Production & Events Coordinator

Inès Cartier
What I love about my job is the variety: meeting a wide range of people, managing several projects at once, and finding the right balance between organisation, creativity and relationship-building. I love being challenged, and no two days are ever the same! I organise and coordinate video shoots for our clients to showcase their image on their showcase page. I handle all the upstream preparation and follow-up to ensure each piece of content is as impactful and high-quality as possible. Alongside this, we also run various events such as e-fairs, awards ceremonies and afterworks, to bring our clients together and showcase their brand.
- Deputy Production & Events Manager
