Jean-Pierre Mustier

Jean-Pierre Mustier, a prominent figure in the financial and tech sectors, is the current CEO of Atos (until February 2025), a major French IT and digital transformation company. His appointment comes at a critical time for Atos, which has been navigating financial challenges and strategic shifts in a rapidly evolving industry. Mustier’s expertise in managing large corporations and driving transformations is expected to play a crucial role in Atos’ future trajectory.

Mustier began his career in finance, starting at Société Générale, where he held various leadership positions, including head of investment banking. His extensive experience in the banking sector, particularly in risk management and corporate restructuring, made him a key player in financial circles. However, he is best known for his time as CEO of UniCredit, Italy’s largest bank. During his tenure from 2016 to 2021, he successfully steered UniCredit through a significant overhaul, focusing on cost-cutting measures, capital strengthening, and streamlining operations. His leadership at UniCredit was characterized by his ability to implement difficult decisions, a skill that will be crucial at Atos.

Jean-Pierre Mustier’s move to Atos represents a significant shift from banking to the IT and tech industry. However, his strategic mindset, proven leadership, and deep understanding of global markets are assets that Atos hopes to leverage as it continues to navigate the complexities of digital transformation and cloud computing. Mustier’s reputation as a strong leader with a clear focus on operational efficiency makes him well-positioned to guide Atos through its restructuring phase and future growth ambitions, while also addressing challenges in cybersecurity and digital infrastructure innovation.

His leadership at Atos is closely watched as the company seeks to regain its position as a leader in the global IT sector.
