Current position: Project Manager, Revevol
Degree earned at Audencia: EIBM 13
Other degrees: Bachelor of International Relations (2012), Universidade do Vale do Itajaí
Nationality: Brazilian
Residence: Paris, France
Professional path
Aline first worked with Revevol – a company that advises and assists companies with the adoption of cloud technologies – as an intern through Audencia’s Master in European and International Business Management (EIBM) programme in 2013. Today, Aline is a project manager for change management projects, helping companies of 8,000 to 90,000 employees in their transition to the cloud.
A Google Premier Enterprise Partner, Revevol Group has grown from 30-40 employees to around 100 since Aline joined the team. Now one of her many responsibilities is to recruit new interns/employees – including some from Audencia.
“That is something I love about working for a growing company,” she says. “I have the opportunity to be on different types of projects at the same time.”
In addition to managing projects that help companies all over the world design and implement global plans for communications, training and processes, Aline coordinates the recruiting, contracting and workflow of trainers worldwide.
She also works on AODocs projects – a virtual file server and document management system. In this role, Aline needs to understand and provide solutions for the business needs of companies in a range of countries and industries.
Aline thrives on this type of work. “I really like being in contact with different types of people and businesses. There’s no routine, so each day is a new challenge.” And with clients and trainers located globally, Aline is frequently travelling. “This year, I went to Brazil, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, India, Dubai and Spain – many times!”
Passions
Aline is passionate about her work. “I want to see my company grow more and more. In the future, I’d like to be in a position to help each team within my company. When you’re in an environment that you love, you want to help it keep growing.”
She also treasures close relationships with her family in Brazil, and “good wine and good talk” with her friends.
Most memorable experience in the programme:
As a student in the EIBM programme, Aline studied in France, Spain and Great Britain. “In each of the countries, we studied in the local language. And my classmates – so many different cultures in one single room! This really helped me understand how different cultures interact, both in my professional and personal life.”
Advice to international students looking to work in France
“No matter the country, you need to learn the local language and culture.” Aline took an intensive French course in Brazil before coming to France. She then spent the final year of her undergraduate studies in France. Learning French shortly before beginning the EIBM programme was challenging, but she happily notes, “We are young, and we can do it.”
Staying in touch with Audencia
Aline is still connected with many of her Audencia classmates: one in Lebanon, one in Colombia, one in China, another in Mexico and many others in France and Spain. She uses the Audencia Alumni network regularly to find interns from Audencia.

Overseeing operations at Nike for 25 countries in Europe
Name: Thibault Guillou Current position: Centre of Excellence Operations Manager, Customer Financial Services, Nike Degree earned at Audencia: IMM 08 Other degrees: Bachelor of International Business, École de Management de Normandie, France; Bachelor’s in Business Administration and Management, University of South Florida, US Nationality: French Residence: Amsterdam - The Netherlands Professional path Working at Nike as the Centre of Excellence Operations Manager in Customer Financial Services, Thibault oversees operations for about 25 countries in Europe, so every day is a bit different. Laughing, he says, “I prefer it this way, as otherwise I might get bored!” Managing customer risk by overseeing the order-to-cash value stream means wearing many hats: compliance and audit, accounting, tech, operations, sales and so on. “We are the cornerstone of the company, in touch with sales, customers, financial planning, distribution centres – it requires a lot of interpersonal skills and a lot of people management.” Thibault works with people from the UK, France, Germany, Russia and Central Europe, and each region has different cultures and approaches. “There’s no one-size-fits-all to communicate your message. It’s enriching.” After graduating from Audencia, Thibault was contacted by a recruiting agency and moved to the European headquarters of Nike. He loves the world of finance and wants to continue learning about Nike. “The business is expanding, so there are many opportunities.” Thibault has been with Nike for five years – and has had four roles within this time. “What I’m really looking for professionally is to keep learning and having fun.” Passions Thibault actively pursues a healthy work/life balance. “You can’t dissociate work from life. Happiness at work helps with happiness at home.” He loves football and running – and of course, Nike has great facilities for staying active and happy at work. “There’s a lot of freedom and flexibility within the company. The job needs to be done, but you also need to take time to enjoy yourself.” Most memorable experience at Audencia: As a native of France, Thibault has a lot of great memories. “What really sticks with me from my time at Audencia are the people I met in the programme. I still stay in touch with some of my classmates.” What links Thibault’s time at Audencia to his current daily life is his ability to communicate effectively with people of all cultures, personalities and backgrounds. “During the IMM, I spent time in France, Poland and Spain – and was always learning in the international environment of IMM students. I’m now able to leverage the skills I gained from that experience.” Advice to students looking to work abroad As a Frenchman living in the Netherlands, Thibault offers this perspective: “I think it’s natural for me to live abroad because I studied abroad. Living abroad requires curiosity.” Staying in touch with Audencia Thibault is still in touch with many of the friends he made during the IMM programme and hopes that an alumni chapter will be established in the Netherlands.
