IT Project Manager — Toyota Motor Europe

Geoffrey Brogniet.
Complex problems,
delivered end to end.

My scope goes beyond delivery: security deployment planning, IT sustainability analysis, service design, cross-border problem-solving — on top of €6M+ of hardware programmes. And I still build software myself. That mix is the point: I'm looking for the open-ended problems, the ones you have to understand before you can plan them.
