Vinci announces management changes
Xavier Huillard has decided to take VINCI's executive management to the next level and will henceforth be assisted by three Executive Vice-Presidents: Pierre Coppey, Richard Francioli (Executive Vice-President, Contracting) and Christian Labeyrie (Executive Vice-President, Finance).
Pierre Coppey has been tasked with giving fresh impetus to cross-Group operations. He has notably been put in charge of forward-looking strategic discussion, environmental policy, operational synergies in France and abroad, the La Fabrique de la Cité think tank and the Fondation VINCI pour la Cité. He will also remain at the helm of VINCI Autoroutes and VINCI Stadium.
Given Pierre Coppey's new duties and the stepped-up pace of concession development, VINCI Concessions has being assigned to Nicolas Notebaert, who is appointed Chief Executive Officer, with Xavier Huillard serving as Chairman. This new grouping brings together VINCI Airports, VINCI Highways (motorway concessions outside France) and VINCI Railways (railway concessions). Nicolas Notebaert becomes a member of VINCI's Executive Committee.
