Barbara joined Sonepar as a financial controller 23 years ago. Since then, her career has developed within the Group, holding numerous positions at Sonepar's headquarters in France, which have allowed her to acquire extensive knowledge of Sonepar's processes and organization, as well as the electricity market.

In April 2021, she was appointed Sonepar SVP Mergers & Acquisitions and CEO Office, and a member of Sonepar's Executive Committee.

Jean-Cyrille Verspieren, who has been with the Sonepar Group since 1996, will assume the role of President of Asia Pacific and become a member of Sonepar's Executive Committee on January 1, 2024, reporting directly to Philippe Delpech, CEO of Sonepar. Verspieren became President of Sonepar Spain in 2018.

Throughout his career, Jean-Cyrille has developed a deep understanding of various markets and countries, and has worked internationally with numerous teams. His extensive knowledge of Sonepar's business, his team spirit, and his strong passion for people will be key to managing the Asia Pacific Region, comprised of 7 countries, 3,900 employees, and where the Group achieved sales of €1.8 billion in 2022.
