OCIM appoints Alain Bendahan as Head of Security

Based in Paris, Alain is responsible for establishing and implementing a global security strategy consistent with the OCIM Group’s objectives. In this capacity, he advises directly to its President, Laurent Mathiot.

Alain is responsible for establishing and implementing a cross-functional, integrated security strategy. Having acquired a solid understanding of the group’s international security challenges as a service provider, among other roles, he is now joining OCIM as Director of Safety and Security. He will work with all departments, including Compliance, Finance and Treasury, Communications, and Administration, to propose relevant solutions.

After earning a two-year degree in law from the University of Sceaux (France), Alain continued his education with a two-year degree in Business Management and Accounting from the University of Paris – La Sorbonne (France). He also received training in risk management through specialized programs offered by Israeli government agencies.

In 1992, he joined the Maison France-Israël in Paris (France), where he held the position of Director of Security and later became CEO from 1996 to 2007. Under his leadership, it became a place of cultural exchange and prosperous economic cooperation between the two countries. At the same time, in 1996, he founded the CJ Sécurité/Protection group, now recognized for its expertise in complex risk management.

With solid experience in high-stakes contexts, Alain knows how to combine the rigor of a strategic vision and operational requirements with the application of transparency and compliance rules. A man of dialogue, pragmatic and respectful of local realities, he will bring to the OCIM Group the elements necessary to secure its industrial process, particularly in Peru.
