About stephanie levan

Stéphanie Levan is a French finance executive known for her expertise in audit, consolidation, internal control, and the governance of listed companies. She is best known for her role as a director of Neoen, where she brings deep knowledge of the group and its financial priorities. In Neoen’s recent reference documents, she also serves on the Audit Committee, underscoring her involvement in financial oversight and in the supervision of reporting quality and control frameworks. Levan began her career at Ernst & Young, where she spent five years handling audit and advisory assignments for a range of listed French and international companies. She then joined Plastic Omnium, an automotive equipment manufacturer and urban waste collection and management specialist, as Group Consolidation Manager and later Internal Audit Director. Those roles helped her build a strong foundation in accounting reliability, risk management, and the reporting standards expected from large public companies. In September 2004, she joined the Louis Dreyfus group as Group Consolidation Manager. Following a corporate spin-off, she became Chief Financial Officer of Impala (formerly Louis Dreyfus SAS). This CFO role within an investment and holding-group environment gave her extensive experience in financial structuring, portfolio oversight, and the governance of diversified assets. Her long tenure within the Louis Dreyfus/Impala ecosystem also gave her a detailed understanding of Neoen from its creation in 2008, which is particularly valuable in a fast-growing industrial group. At Neoen, Stéphanie Levan represents a seasoned governance profile at the intersection of finance, control, and board oversight. Her background is especially relevant in a fast-expanding renewable energy company that requires disciplined capital allocation, robust financial management, and close monitoring of ESG commitments. A graduate of EDHEC and a certified public accountant, she stands out as a rigorous, structured executive with a strong focus on reporting quality and decision-making discipline.
