Keyrus appoints new Director General for France

Keyrus has appointed Nicolas Bouffard as Director General for France, reporting directly to Marc Stukkens, who leads the Keyrus Group. Bouffard will oversee the company’s operations in France, which employ around 600 people across four main business areas: Data & AI, Business Transformation, Software Engineering, and Cybersecurity.

Bouffard’s professional background

Bouffard earned his degrees from EPITA and the Cranfield School of Management and has more than two decades of experience in the technology and consulting sectors. He previously held commercial and leadership roles at Oracle and SAP before leading the Île-de-France region operations at Akkodis and managing cloud services in France at Devoteam, focusing on Microsoft, AWS, and Google platforms.

Key priorities for Bouffard’s leadership

Bouffard’s leadership plan focuses on four main goals: driving profitable growth, enhancing the company’s approach to large clients and sector-specific markets, adapting services and skills to the AI era, and creating a unified organizational model called "One Keyrus France." This appointment aligns with the group’s broader strategy, "Architect of Intelligence," which positions Keyrus France as a leading implementation of this vision.

Statement from Keyrus leadership

Éric Cohen, Founder and Executive Chairman of Keyrus, emphasized that the appointment of Bouffard aims to accelerate the company’s transformation. He stated, "With Nicolas, we want to accelerate: moving from Data to Intelligence, from expertise to orchestration, and gradually from several Keyrus to One Keyrus."
