BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions has made several changes to its executive senior positions following the retirement of its deputy chief executive officer Xavier Viollet.

Joining BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions chief executive officer Charlotte Dennery on its general management committee, Pascal Layan has been appointed deputy chief executive officer. He retains his responsibilities as director of international business lines and marketing. He also takes over the management of consulting activities.

Chief operating officer Wolfgang Pinner remains in charge of country supervision. He has also been appointed as chief data officer. The supervision of the holding company and the strategy and development division will now also be attached to him.

Delphine Roché, previously responsible for the relationship with retail banking in France, joins the executive board as director of transformation and IT. She will oversee IT corporate, process and efficiency, digital transformation, procurement, and personnel and property security.

Roché began her career at BNP Paribas’ corporate and investment banking in the media and telecom finance department. After having contributed to the launch of Lean Six Sigma at BNP Paribas, she joined Leasing Solutions in 2007. She then took the lead of the marketing and communication, and business intelligence. Since November 2015, she had been the deputy head of the Bank Leasing Services France division, which offers financing solutions to BNP Paribas Group’s French retail banking clients.

Charlotte Dennery, chief executive officer of BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions, said: “We are delighted to welcome Delphine Roché to the now rejuvenated and perfectly balanced general management committee. Her skills and determination will play a key role in continuing the transformation plan of BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions, particularly, in the digitalization of the company at all levels, to be able to meet the new expectations of our employees, our customers and our partners.”
