France’s GTT names new finance chief

French LNG containment giant GTT has appointed Virginie Aubagnac as the company’s chief financial officer.

Moreover, Aubagnac joined GTT in April this year as special advisor to GTT’s CEO Philippe Berterottiere. She has nearly 20 years of experience in finance.

“This appointment strengthens the management team,” Berterottiere said.

“Virginie Aubagnac’s vision of GTT group’s transformation and development, her rich experience, as well as her entrepreneurial spirit and managerial qualities, will fully contribute to the implementation of GTT’s strategic orientations,” he said.
