In this solo of Before Success Podcast, Addisen sits down with Inès Abderrahmane, Head of the Sydney Office in the Economic Department for the French Treasury, and former Chief of Staff to France’s Minister of the Economy, Bruno Le Maire.
From her early days at Sciences Po Lyon to navigating the upper echelons of French public service, Inès shares her journey through high-stakes government roles, including shaping international economic strategy and leading key missions during the French Presidency of the EU.
With postings in Bercy and now Sydney, she opens up about the challenges of leadership, transitioning from national policy to global diplomacy, and what it means to represent France’s economic interests abroad in a rapidly shifting world.
Whether you're interested in international relations with large French companies (Cartier, Tiffany & Co.), public service, or just how global policy is made behind the scenes, this episode offers a rare look at the career of a senior civil servant operating at the crossroads of economics and diplomacy.
