Cédric Beauvillard: "I especially appreciate the direct contact with clients"

Cédric Beauvillard, Account Manager within Transaction & Commercial Banking, chose this department providing fast evolution towards responsible positions.

Tell us about your career with Crédit Agricole CIB...

I began in 2007 with an internship in the Transaction & Commercial Banking department. Later I was hired as Credit Manager with responsibility for a portfolio of clients in aerospace and telecommunications. My main task was to ensure, together with the Corporate Banker, the structuring of credit and guarantee transactions in the broad sense (interface between the client and the Bank’s various departments for arranging transactions). In line with the process of evolving towards the Corporate Banker position, I became an Account Manager for a new client portfolio in April 2010.

What are your responsibilities?

Together with the Corporate Banker, I am responsible for developing the cash management activity’s net banking income for my portfolio of clients. Within the framework of the European SEPA project leading to the development of new payment systems, companies’ strategies in terms of cash management are tending to become more international and uniform. Our role is to detect our clients’ needs in this area, assist them commercially and advise them.

What do you like the most about your function?

I especially appreciate the direct contact with the clients. My portfolio is made up of the largest French and international companies in telecommunications and aerospace such as France Télécom and EADS. The demands of our contacts within these well-known companies require a large degree of professionalism. We need to know very well the Bank’s products and services to propose clients the best-tailored solutions.
