Aline Foubert
Business Controller
The most important part of Aline Foubert’s role as business controller is cost accounting. She tracks and analyzes business expenses, profits and margins. IT tools enable her to generate statistics by nation, product and representative on a daily basis. In line with management policy, she draws up annual budget estimates and every month turns out tracking data for volumes and profits. Alone at this workstation, she is in close contact with the accounts department.
My function
The position of business controller since 2012 represents a new career path for Aline Foubert as the former post she held for 6 years was management assistant at Konecranes, Orléans, a company in the same group. Her new post, because it offers direct contact with all the departments of the group, provides her greater autonomy and above all enhanced global vision. Her work has gradually become international in scope and she now liaises with the business controllers of all the group’s subsidiaries. This part of her work involves trips around Europe and to the USA 2 or 3 times a year. In order to give maximum results, she followed intensive English language training courses at the start before eventually being able to use the language on a practical daily basis. She is happy to be able to compare her work experience with that of persons with similar profiles in other countries.
My hobby
Aline Foubert is very keen on sports. She practises English boxing twice a week and enjoys running with friends and family.
But Aline is also and above all an experienced biker whose enthusiasm for Summer road trips knows no bounds. Every Summer she covers 3000 km during her 3-week break by stages of 200 to 300 km. With her husband, she travels along small country roads and highways, preferably mountainous, in France and around Europe on her Guzzi V7 Racer. They have no planned itinerary and go where they wish on a whim ending their day pleasurably in unexpected places. Aline is awed by the beauty of landscapes and their diversity. She says that once on her motorbike she feels entirely free and lets her thoughts flow as the landscape passes by.
