Background

In 1990, François-Xavier Bellon began his career with the Adecco group, working first in France and then in Spain.

In 1995, he joined the Sodexo Group, taking up an operational role in France. In 1999, he was appointed Regional Director in Mexico DF and subsequently became Chief Executive Officer of Sodexo Mexico.

In 2004, he was appointed Chief Executive Officer of Sodexo UK & Ireland. He resigned from his post a few months later for health reasons.

During his ten years with the Group, he has acquired in-depth knowledge of the Group’s activities, their operational and social aspects, as well as the ability to manage large workforces.

He rejoined the Adecco group in September 2004 and headed up the Sales and Marketing Department of the Global Staffing Division as well as managing the Group’s key international accounts, based between Zurich and London. Through this experience he gained in-depth knowledge of human resources management and international strategic negotiations.

In May 2007, François-Xavier Bellon changed focus and took over a company based in the United Kingdom that provides Homecare services to dependent people, of which he became Chief Executive Officer before founding Lifecarers. He then left Lifecarers in November 2019 to focus on his various roles within Bellon SA and Sodexo.
