Ah! the Ariège!... With its 'r' rolling like a pebble in a river, this single word, in the mouth of the new pattern of Brink's France, is an invitation to travel. "Exile" in Paris for sixteen long years, the child of La Bastide-de-Sérou cannot spend more than 15 days in a row in the capital without feeling the irrepressible need to breathe in the campaign. His native land is a little far, is is paid a house in Normandy, "as all Parisians... All the more significant consolation that this mountain there loves the sea. His boat is always ready for a rapid transferred in the English channel. In the meantime the beautiful sailboat that will take it on the Mediterranean, when the time of retirement will be sounded.
It is not yet for immediately. A forty-eight years, one that was previously here CEO of Brink's France supported operations began with his appointment as CEO a new phase of his career in the transport of funds. A career began in 1984 in Secso, young Bordeaux subsidiary of Crédit Agricole, the Ariegeois had probably never heard before there begin, his master's degree in Pocket. Son of a hairdresser and a merchant of wines that he helped deliver the bottles as soon as he was age to drive a van the call of the transport, already , he was preparing to pass without conviction behind the Green Bank window when a leader of the House, sharing with him roots Pyrenean and the love of rugby, convinced him to try his luck in the SMEs.
Clash of cultures
It will not have to regret it. Recruited as management controller, it will serve factotum for a few years prior to the merger with Sécuripost, a subsidiary of the position of a size comparable to Secso (passed in nine of 10 to 2,000 employees), but additional geographic coverage. The transaction gives rise to Ardial in 1993. Patrick Lagarde, who is then given the reins of the Ile-de-France region, a stronghold of the ex-Sécuripost, meet the head of an army of contractual agents. The clash of cultures is rude. Must standardize articles to the glaring inequalities between postal and non-postiers, find a quality of Honourable service, appease a detestable social climate... None of this is miffed. But when the Crédit Agricole and post sell Ardial UBS Swiss Bankers and they announce their intention to merge Ardial with Sersé, another subsidiary of the Green Bank, the man is devine blood slams the door. "I told them that want to enhance a floor a House whose foundations were not yet strong enough, it was suicide", he says. The future gave her reason: Valiance, born of this new operation, has hardly been long to collapse.
It was then that Jean-Michel Houry, Brink's France boss, he opens the door. Came in 1999, it begins with a little back in the network before the adventure of the changeover to euro, to sometimes incredible adventures but to the happy outcome: all "DAB" have been supplied in time and hour. Even in the bottom of the Ariège.
