Within the international I&O coordination department, my role is “hardware and infrastructure project leader”.
This team of 3 persons, including myself, was responsible for the European branches (outside Benelux) counting more than 10 countries, 2000 users and 250 servers.

My principal tools were Visio for the network layers, Sharepoint for projects documents storage, Outlook for the communications, and CMDB/HP Openview for the requests and tickets management.

I have taken the lead for many IT and infrastructure projects and the most famous were:

  • Migration for 50 NT4 servers to a Windows 2003 environment in an active directory forest interconnecting the whole European network and with automated deployment of softwares and security policies through GPOs
