About LINE CADEL

Line Cadel serves as Chief Human Resources Officer at OVHcloud, where she oversees the group’s global human resources agenda. In this role, she is responsible for recruitment, training, talent management, employee relations and payroll operations across the company’s international footprint. In a listed cloud leader that has grown rapidly and operates in a highly competitive sector, her position is central to aligning people strategy with business execution. She joined OVHcloud in January 2017 as a HR Business Partner and was promoted to Chief Human Resources Officer in November 2018. That progression reflects both her internal impact and her ability to structure and scale HR practices within a technology company undergoing significant transformation. OVHcloud’s expansion requires a robust people function capable of supporting growth, industrialisation, internationalisation and the attraction of scarce technical talent. Line Cadel’s mandate sits at the heart of that challenge. Before joining OVHcloud, she accumulated 12 years of HR experience in different environments, including digital businesses and retail. This breadth of exposure gave her a versatile and operational profile, combining employee support, organisational design and change management. Her background is particularly relevant in a fast-moving technology group, where HR leaders must balance talent acquisition, skills development, social dialogue and cultural cohesion. Within OVHcloud’s executive committee, Line Cadel plays an important role in shaping the company’s people strategy and reinforcing its corporate culture. She has been especially visible on diversity, inclusion and women’s participation in tech. In 2024, she was appointed regional delegate for Hauts-de-France in Numeum’s NOVA in Tech programme, underlining OVHcloud’s commitment to encouraging more women to pursue digital careers. She has also been involved in initiatives related to disability employment and the broader attractiveness of technology jobs. Her contribution supports a responsible governance model in which human capital is treated as a strategic asset. By promoting inclusion, skills development and employee engagement, Line Cadel helps OVHcloud strengthen its long-term competitiveness while remaining faithful to its social and regional roots.
