Early life
Senard is the son of a diplomat who grew up in numerous embassies around the world. Senard attended the Hautes Etudes Commerciales (HEC) in Paris where he completed his education with an MA in law, before commencing his ascent through the ranks of France’s leading corporates.
Career
He started his career with various financial and operational management jobs at the oil company Total S.A. between 1979 and 1987. In 1987, Jean-Dominique Senard joined the management of the treasury of Saint-Gobain. In February 1988, he was appointed Deputy Director - then director in January 1991 - in cash and financing. He then moved to construction materials group Saint-Gobain where he remained for nine years before joining aluminium conglomerate Pechiney in 1996 as CFO and a member of its executive committee. When the mining firm Alcan launched a takeover bid for Pechiney in 2003, Senard was appointed chairman and became a member of Alcan’s executive committee.
In March 2005, he joined Michelin as its CFO and executive council member. After the accidental drowning of his boss Édouard Michelin, he was appointed to managing partner of the group in May 2007. He then also served as head of financial affairs, legal services, plans and results.
Michelin announced in November 2014 that Senard would continue as the managing general partner for the company following a meeting of the firm’s board of directors on 6 October 2014. His term of office was renewed for four years and will expire in the first half of 2019, at the close of the annual shareholders’ meeting.
