​

I have known Thibaud for more than 5 years and we started to work closely together from 2015. 

I took over the position of General Manger in Indonesia. Thibaud took over the position of Finance and Commercial Manager in Indonesia.

​

Our initial focus in was to deliver the Jangkrik Project, 4 billion US$ invested, key gas to LNG project for Indonesia offshore Kalimantan (Operated by Eni). Thibaud was in charge of all commercial and marketing activities. This major project was a great technical and commercial success. It was executed under the initial budget (-10%) and 2 months ahead of schedule, with excellent HSE performance, more than 30 million man-hours worked with no significant accidents / incidents.

The marketing strategy was finalized Q2-2017 with the signature of two major LNG contracts. Production started mid-2017. 

​

During the various phase of the Jangkrik project, I developed a strong relationship with Thibaud based on commitment, challenge, transparency and trust allowing us to take quick decisions and optimize the management of the team to focus it on delivering the project. This relationship was crucial as convincing and aligning Shareholders, Partners and Stakeholders was the critical path to success. 

​

Our second focus was the Engie E&P / Indonesian assets sales process, when Engie decided late 2015 to divest from the E&P business. This long process started early 2016 running until mid-2017 with the diligence phase with potential buyers. In February 2018, Neptune Energy took over all the Engie E&P activities. Thibaud was in charge of managing a smooth transition from Engie to Neptune Energy for all the financial and commercial activities, contributing to the integration of the Indonesian Structure in the new company model. 

Again, the success of the Indonesian activities was the result of the excellent relationship with Thibaud. Being both fully aligned, we were able to challenge the Operator and convince our management to invest to further develop the business in Indonesia. Indonesia became a key area for Neptune Energy following overall excellent performance. 

​

Thibaud has a long and strong work experience in various and difficult environments and cultures. He is a proven and well recognized manager. He is a hard worker with a flexible attitude and an excellent adaptability to changing environment. He is always focus on delivering above expectations. He has a proven ability to work with Partners and develop strong relationship with Stakeholders. He has the capability to develop company image and influence in the country, through active networking. 

Thibaud can manage and drive Technical and non-Technical Teams to success. He can quickly gain the confidence of his Team, partners and shareholders. His strong financial and commercial background is a clear advantage and key strength for running and further developing a company. He can define and promote the bigger picture leading to the right investment decisions.

​

Sincerely,

​

Dear Sirs or Madam,

 

It’s my pleasure to provide this letter of recommendation for Thibaud. As CFO at GNL Mejillones (ENGIE group) in Chile, I was his direct manager and I’ve worked closely with him. Thibaud was responsible for internal control and he consistently exceeded his goals.

 

He’s well-spoken in Spanish and English, has excellent communication skills and he has a cut clear understanding of our business, the gas industry and the energy markets.

 

He did not only provide efficient work related to his core responsibilities, but he also established productive relations with his co-workers and with our different stakeholders. Thibaud was always ready to contribute during meetings between the different teams in the company and is extremely well organized and committed.

He was really proactive and performing also tasks not directly related to his position: he provided valuable results as responsible for two SAP development projects, including a segregation of duties program. He was also involved in the reorganization of the procurement department and was responsible for the insurance policies of the company.

 

I enjoyed working with him, and I would do it again. That’s why I’d like to give my strong support for Thibaud. I know he will continue to find success in his career.

Please feel free to contact me with any other questions.

​

Sincerely,

​

Dear Sirs or Madam,

It’s my pleasure to provide this letter of recommendation for Thibaud. During my tenure as CFO at GNL Mejillones (ENGIE group, formerly known as GDF Suez) in Santiago, Chile, I hired him in 2012 for the role of Senior Business Quality Manager in charge of Internal control within the GNLM organization.

In my capacity as his direct manager during a two-year timespan, I was impressed by Thibaud’s quick learning capabilities, commitment and work ethos.

Thibaud has a self-starter mentality and rapidly developed a network across the organization, both with the administrative and commercial teams at the Head Office in Santiago and with the technical operators in the regasification plant located in the Atacama Desert. He successfully implemented stringent internal control procedures within the organization compliant with the ENGIE group standards but more importantly, he was instrumental in fostering a company culture of transparency, efficiency and accountability. These achievements were recognized within the wider ENGIE internal control community.

 

Moreover, Thibaud was not only in charge of internal control as I gave him several other responsibilities. For instance, he was in charge of managing all the insurance contracts of the regasification plant, he has been the team lead on several special projects such as the procurement department reorganization, and was also in charge of two ERP/SAP development projects for a total amount of 200 KUSD, which translated into tangible long-lasting results for the organization.

 

It was a pleasure working with Thibaud because he was a great team player and full of energy. His proficiency in English and Spanish earned him respect from his peers and made him a role model for many of his colleagues.

 

In summary, due to his great attitude, dedication and excellent potential, I would definitely recommend Thibaud. I am sure that he would be as great an asset to your team as he has been to mine.

 

Please feel free to contact me with any other queries.

 

Best,

 

Willem Van den Abeele

SVP finance Dept., MESCAT division ENGIE group (CFO at GNL Mejillones between 2010 and 2014)

To whomsoever it may concern


I have been asked by Mr. Thibaud Vincendon to provide this reference based on my professional experience of working with him since September 2008. He has reported to me in his role as junior and senior auditor on various audit engagements. This interaction with him allowed me to assess some of his key abilities. Thibaud shows clear dedication to his immediate responsibilities and is determined in completing it to the best of his abilities. In a wider sense I was impressed to constantly note the level of dedication, determination and responsibility he demonstrates towards his profession.


Thibaud has had an impressive track record, both academic and professional, which I believe was possible mainly because of the specific qualities which I had mentioned earlier. After completing his masters in accounting and finance, he joined Ernst & Young and provided assurance services to the clients. During the course of my interaction with Thibaud on audit engagements I noticed his ability to communicate effectively on both technical and non-technical issues with the team and also the clients. I consider effective communication and interpersonal skills a key asset in a multi-national working environment and found Thibaud was able to do so effectively in both English and French.


Further, I have also found Thibaud to be quick to grasp accounting concepts and able to analyze issues and situations logically. He makes an effort to generate solutions and options which helps management with the decision making process. Thibaud has a clear understanding of his role and work to be performed from a technical point of view and he has also adequately developed his knowledge level further.


My interaction with Thibaud as a colleague and his supervisor leads me to believe that he has an intelligent mind with a capacity to quickly grasp various concepts and the right level of dedication which is required to convert ability to success. I wish him all success in his future endeavor.
