CEO of Sodexo
Sophie spent years earning stripes in finance, strategy, and line roles. She took the top job only after proving she could manage both board and operations. And she split out and governed newer pieces of the business with proper checks, including her role on the PluxEE board after its listing, to keep focus clean. That’s governance with a backbone, not vibes. Sodexo feeds and supports people at scale: offices shifting to hybrid, stadiums chasing better fan experiences, hospitals under pressure, and schools reinventing cafeterias. Expect Sophie to keep trimming complexity, doubling down on tech and data, and pushing menus and supply chains to be healthier and lower-waste.
