We are thrilled to announce the appointment of Matthieu Hoffmann as our new Chief People Officer (CPO).
As The Yard Studio continues to expand its reach and capabilities, we are thrilled to announce the appointment of Matthieu Hoffmann as our new Chief People Officer (CPO). This marks a significant step in our journey to strengthen our organizational structure and foster a work environment where creativity and collaboration thrive.
Matthieu Hoffmann brings with him over 20 years of experience in human resources, including a decade dedicated to the entertainment industry. His global expertise spans across studios located in multiple countries, where he played a key role in supporting their growth, enhancing people development, and building dynamic corporate cultures. With Matthieu’s leadership, we are confident in his ability to help us navigate the complexities of a fast-evolving industry while staying true to our commitment to our team and partners.
At The Yard Studio, we believe our people are our greatest asset. As we expand into new markets and embark on exciting projects, creating the right environment for our teams and artists to thrive is paramount. Matthieu’s appointment as CPO aligns perfectly with our growth strategy, which emphasizes skill development, expertise, and a culture that empowers individuals to excel.
Matthieu’s arrival coincides with several exciting developments at The Yard, including the renewal of our talent acquisition team with the recent addition of Mathilde Chambras. This reinforcement reflects our commitment to attracting and nurturing the best talent in the industry.
We’re also proud to introduce new internal initiatives, such as the hiring of a permanent English teacher to support our team’s professional development. This initiative is a critical step in enhancing communication and collaboration on international projects, particularly as we deepen our connections with the UK ecosystem following the opening of our new facility in London.
I'm delighted to be joining The Yard and contributing to the studio's evolution. Working alongside talented artists on both French and international projects in a studio with such a strong reputation is a fantastic opportunity. My arrival comes during a period of dynamic growth in France and the opening of a studio in London, so I hope to bring an HR vision to support this expansion.
We’re excited to have Matthieu Hoffmann on board as we continue to grow and explore new opportunities. His experience and fresh perspective will be pivotal in helping our team succeed and in shaping the next phase of The Yard Studio’s journey. Welcome to the team, Matthieu!
