Argos Fund announces the appointment of Joséphine Manière as Communication Manager, strengthening its communications team led by Coralie Cornet. She will notably be in charge of boosting Argos’ influence and events strategy.
Her appointment comes as Argos continues to develop its European platform following two successive oversubscribed fundraisings. With a team of 80 people and 28 portfolio companies, the firm brings together an active and expanding network of management teams, investors and business partners across Europe. Strengthening its communications capabilities will help Argos deepen these relationships and further enhance its visibility in the European mid-market.
Joséphine brings 10 years of experience in corporate communications, public relations and event management, gained across consulting firms and institutions. At Argos, she will contribute to the firm’s outreach and engagement with its stakeholders through influence initiatives and events.
Before joining Argos, Joséphine worked at Boston Consulting Group where she served as Senior Project Manager, Brand & Influence. She previously held advisory roles at FTI Consulting and Vae Solis Communications, supporting clients with their communications and public relations.
Earlier in her career, she was Communications Manager at the French-American Foundation, following a communications role at Institut Montaigne. Joséphine studied at EHESS and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and English Literature from McGill University.
Coralie Cornet, Communication Director at Argos Fund, commented:
“I am delighted to welcome Joséphine to our communications team. Her experience in corporate communications, influence and events brings a valuable addition as we strengthen our engagement with Argos’ growing European network. Our ambition is to ensure that our communications reflect Argos’ reputation as a recognised leading European mid-market investor and the breadth of expertise across our platform, helping us bring our people, portfolio companies and wider community closer together.”
