Paris, May 4, 2018 – Capgemini announced today its plan to appoint Carole Ferrand as Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO), replacing Aiman Ezzat who is Chief Operating Officer alongside Thierry Delaporte since January 1, 2018.

As Chief Financial Officer, Aiman Ezzat has made outstanding contributions to the Group’s performance over the past five years, and built a world-class finance function which supports the Group in its development strategy,” said Paul Hermelin, Chairman and CEO, Capgemini Group.
