Benoît Coulon takes over as head of Arcadis in France

Benoît Coulon took up his new duties on October 31, 2025, in parallel with his position as Global Accounting Officer, which he has held since December 2021 and whose mission is to ensure the supervision of the accounts of the Arcadis group and to lead the global transformation of the accounting activity, mobilizing more than 500 employees around the world.

Benoît Coulon is 53 years old. Holding a Master's degree in Accounting and Finance, he has over 25 years of experience in the field, having held several financial management positions at Technicolor Creative Studios, Bouygues Immobilier, Bouygues Construction and Veolia Environnement before joining Arcadis, where he developed expertise in consolidation, reporting and change management in complex international environments.

Benoît Coulon succeeds Philippe Autuori as head of Arcadis in France since July 2024. In a complicated infrastructure market context, the latter wished to devote himself fully to his role as Director of Mobility activities in France which he has held since 2015.

For Benoît Coulon: « I am very pleased to take on this new challenge and to work with the Arcadis teams in France. My ambition for the coming years is to foster the company's sustainable growth in France, combining rigor, high standards, and a strong sense of teamwork, all in service of our clients. I will also continue to work with my teams globally to produce transparent and high-quality financial and non-financial information, as well as to improve our accounting and financial processes. This global perspective will be an asset in my new responsibilities in France, ensuring perfect alignment with the Group's objectives. »
