Appointed in July 2012, Stéphane Hénon succeeds Yves Coquinot as Managing Director of LOXAM. A veteran, with 20 years' experience, including 12 years with LOXAM as Ile-de-France Regional Manager, then Operations Manager for French and international subsidiaries, Stéphane Hénon has developed sound economic and management skills. This 43-year old father of three has now risen to the rank of Managing Director of LOXAM, assisting Gérard Déprez at the helm of this leader in the European equipment rental market.

Four years later, he moved into the construction sector as Site Operations Manager for Dagard, the leading French industrial insulation company. His adaptability, combined with his sales and managerial expertise, secured him a position with the LOXAM Group in 2000, initially as Regional Manager for Ile-de-France. He quickly earned respect for his excellent leadership skills and was soon appointed Operations Manager for LOXAM France subsidiaries and subsequently for the entire international network.

His development strategy expertise was particularly valuable in takeovers or mergers with Setec, Alpha location, Alpina, Lev, DNE/JJ (Denmark), Spreeuwenberg (Netherlands), Stammis (Netherlands) and Ireland Access. In February 2011, Stéphane Hénon joined the LOXAM General Management Team as Deputy Managing Director responsible for specialist French subsidiaries and international subsidiaries.
