Descriptif du poste
Datastorm est une société (SAS) créée en 2013 pour répondre à une demande grandissante d’expertise dans le domaine de la statistique, de l’économie, de la Datascience et de l’intelligence artificielle, en tant qu’entreprise de droit privé, filiale à 100% du Groupe ENSAE-ENSAI (GENES).
Datastorm permet aux entreprises et aux organismes publics d’enrichir leur propre capacité de recherche et développement par l’adjonction de l’expertise très riche en Datascience, en intelligence artificielle et en économie des laboratoires du groupe ENSAE-ENSAI et de ses laboratoires partenaires. Positionnée sur un secteur porteur, c’est une entreprise en croissance rapide.
Depuis sa création, Datastorm a mené de nombreuses missions d’expertise et de conseil pour des donneurs d’ordre privés et publics, et a développé à leur profit des algorithmes maîtrisés grâce à la compréhension de leurs mécanismes et de leur domaine de validité. Donner du sens aux données, est une marque forte de DataStorm et du Groupe ENSAE-ENSAI.
Avec le souhait de rester agile, Datastorm privilégie une organisation légère avec un regroupement de l’ensemble des équipes opérationnelles (une douzaine de collaborateurs, des recrutements sont à prévoir) au sein d’une direction unique pilotée par le directeur général et 1 directrice des opérations (COO), chargée principalement du suivi opérationnel des projets.
Chez Datastorm, chaque salarié consacre une partie de son temps à des travaux de R&D : développement d’outils (R, python, …), recherche algorithmique / optimisation, veille technologique et académique, écriture de white paper / post / article, formation interne, participation à des conférences…
Poste et missions :
Le directeur général sera responsable du fonctionnement et du développement de l’entreprise. Il devra élaborer, en accord avec le Président de Datastorm, la politique générale de développement de l’entreprise : développement commercial, marketing et financier.
Le directeur général devra notamment assurer une veille sur les nouvelles tendances du secteur de la Datascience, identifier de nouveaux leads et signer de contrats à long terme avec de nouveaux clients (une trentaine actuellement) puis en assurer la fidélisation. Il devra également gérer les réponses aux appels d’offres, identifier des chercheurs ou partenaires pouvant intervenir sur des projets. Il est hautement souhaitable qu’il dispose de connaissances en Datascience le mettant en capacité de participer à certaines missions.
Le directeur général devra entretenir une culture d’entreprise et fédérer les équipes autour d’un projet commun, notamment en communiquant auprès des collaborateurs pour les faire adhérer aux décisions et aux valeurs de l’entreprise. Il sera responsable du recrutement (entretiens finaux), des relations sociales avec le CSE élu et effectuera le suivi des thèmes de travail en R&D.
Le directeur général sera responsable du pilotage financier : les budgets, le calcul de prévisionnel, les indicateurs financiers & commerciaux, les relations avec l’expert-comptable.
Relations :
Le directeur général devra assurer la visibilité de l’entreprise sur le marché de façon permanente, en exploitant les nouveaux moyens de communication (LinkedIn, twitter, web, médias…), en participant à la rédaction d'articles ou en mobilisant des personnes externes.
Datastorm étant une filiale du groupe ENSAE-ENSAI, le directeur général devra maintenir des relations avec le monde académique, en particulier les chercheurs du groupe pour qu’ils puissent intervenir sur des projets exigeant une expertise pointue.
Le directeur général rendra compte de son action auprès du conseil d’administration et de l’actionnaire.
