CEO | Scutum North America

As the former head of High Rise Fire and Security, our merger with Scutum North America was an exemplary experience. As the Scutum Group's first acquisition in the United States, the deal was built on alignment, trust and a shared vision. Scutum distinguished itself by its respect for the teams and the brand, favouring collaboration, gradual integration and investment, for a fluid partnership that creates value. I would recommend Scutum without hesitation.

Joining the Scutum Group has been a remarkable experience. Aligning ourselves with an international, family-run company that really understands our business and values its teams came naturally. Four years on, we're proud of what we've built together and fully committed to supporting our installer partners and delivering excellent service. As Chairman, I'm delighted to be opening this new chapter alongside Scutum and contributing to a smooth and lasting integration.
