I manage Selectra's Telecom France division — tracking every internet box, mobile plan and operator on the French market to produce accurate, up-to-date comparisons for English-speaking expats navigating one of Europe's most competitive telecom landscapes.
About
I lead the Telecom France division at Selectra, which means I spend my days tracking offers from Orange, SFR, Bouygues, Free and every MVNO on the market. My job is to make sure every comparison we publish reflects what providers actually offer today — not last quarter. I monitor box launches, price changes, promotional windows and network coverage so our guides stay accurate through every cycle. With over 215 articles published across Selectra, Échos du Net and Cablebox News, I cover the full telecom stack: fibre deployment, 5G rollout, internet box reviews, mobile plan comparisons and the fine print of French contracts. I write for English-speaking expats who need clear, no-nonsense information about a market that can be genuinely confusing — and who deserve the same quality of advice as French consumers.
I also manage operator partnerships for Selectra. Telecom providers interested in working with us are welcome to reach out by email at [email protected].
