CRISTAL GROUP INTERNATIONAL FRANCE EXPANDS ITS TEAM !
In September 2022, CRISTAL GROUP INTERNATIONAL (CGI) France had the pleasure to welcome four (04) new employees.
A Junior Cybersecurity Project Manager working in our Paris office who will be in charge of implementing contracts and following-up on customers using CRISTAL CYBER’ services.
Eager to always offer the best services and responses to our clients’ needs, CGI also added two (02) new Cybersecurity Engineers to the current team, in order to reinforce and improve our technical and operational capacities.
The first one will also be operating from the Paris office and will allow us to react even more quickly to any cybersecurity related demand: audit, pentest, detection of stalkerwares – such as Pegasus – thanks to our non-invasive solution: Erato.
And the other one will be based in Lyon (the historical headquarters of the group), where similar services are provided to our French and international clients.
Last but not least, CGI recruited a group Chief of Staff. Ms. Jade MERMET is now in charge of the global coordination of the group and mostly acts as a link between the different teams and our top management. To this end, she will share her time between Paris office and Lyon HQ, when not travelling with our CEO and Chairman, Mr. Kevin ALILI to assist him or representing him.
