SUEZ announces the appointment of Stéphanie Cau as Chief Communication, Marketing, Sustainability and Public Affairs, and member of the Executive Committee
SUEZ, a global leader in circular solutions for water and waste, today announced the appointment of Stéphanie Cau as the Group’s new Chief Communication, Marketing, Sustainability and Public Affairs. She will also be a member of the Executive Committee, and will take up her role on 1 October 2024.
After obtaining an engineering degree, Stéphanie Cau undertook postgraduate studies at Sciences Po Paris and then at Brown University (USA), where she studied international relations. After beginning her career with a marketing role in 2001 at Le Bon Marché – part of the LVMH group – she held positions in Communications and Investor Relations and as Chief of Staff in global companies such as Sodexo and Idemia.
She subsequently joined Bureau Veritas, where she was Chief of Staff to the CEO from 2014 to 2017. She then took on the additional role of Brand and Communications Vice President, and headed the company’s CSR function from 2021 to 2023, when she joined Renault Group as Chief Communications Officer and member of the Leadership Team.
Stéphanie Cau has a proven track record working for international technological, industrial and service groups. That experience will be valuable in supporting SUEZ as it develops its business in France and worldwide, working for corporate clients and local authorities.
She will succeed Frederick Jeske-Schoenhoven, who has decided to pursue new professional opportunities.
Sabrina Soussan, Chairman and CEO of SUEZ, commented: “I am thrilled to welcome Stéphanie Cau as our new Chief Communication, Marketing, Sustainability and Public Affairs. Her prolific career experience in industry and services will be major assets, supporting us in our new phase of development. I would like to thank Frederick for his contribution and commitment during the first two years of the new SUEZ. I wish him every success in his future endeavours."
