Lorenz Divad (SKEMA 2022), Ambassador of the Supply Chain Business Club

22 August 2025 Interview

Could you briefly tell us about your career since graduating from SKEMA and what motivated you to become an ambassador for the Supply Chain Business Club?

 

My career at Skema started right after engineering school. My aim was to complement my technical skills with a managerial diploma, and supply chain and purchasing was the course that best complemented my industrial background. Since graduating, I've spent 2 years in Amsterdam as a revenue analyst with Air France KLM in the cargo division on a VIE basis. It was after this incredible adventure that I decided to return to Paris, still with Air France, this time in a position that combines my technical and business sides as project manager for IT projects in cargo revenue management.

How do you see your role as ambassador for the Supply Chain Business Club?? Could you share a few ideas for events or initiatives you'd like to set up?

 

I've already helped organize events at Skema when I was a class delegate, and I'd like to bring my social side to this stage by organizing events for the students.I'd like to bring my social side to this stage by organizing meet-ups that will enable professionals to exchange ideas, but also keep in touch with people. I think that's the most important thing, and it's by showing that we can combine a good understanding with this professional side that we can come up with projects that attract people. I'm thinking, of course, of organizing after-work sessions, and perhaps supply or purchasing project exchange events, to enable ideas and knowledge to be shared.

 

What message would you like to pass on to alumni to encourage them to join and become actively involved in the Supply Chain Business Club?

 

Don't hesitate to come along! Getting involved in this type of initiative means that you're not just anchored in your professional life, but also have more informal exchanges, which I find are less common once you've left school. It can energize you and make you try things out, and it's this mindset that's important for staying balanced in your life.
