Le Collectionist poursuit la structuration de sa gouvernance.

La plateforme spécialisée dans la location de maisons d’exception avec services de conciergerie annonce la nomination d’Olivier Grémillon au poste de Chairman (président du conseil d’administration).

Déjà senior advisor et membre du conseil d’administration depuis 2024, l’ancien dirigeant d’Airbnb, Booking.com et Vivino aura pour mission d’accompagner la nouvelle phase de développement international et de rentabilité de l’entreprise.

Cette nomination intervient alors que Le Collectionist entend accélérer sa croissance après une levée de fonds de 60 millions d’euros en Série B.

Fondée en 2014, la société revendique aujourd’hui une position de leader européen sur le marché de la location de maisons de prestige.

Son portefeuille comprend plus de 2 000 propriétés réparties dans une cinquantaine de destinations, principalement en Europe du Sud et dans les Alpes.

L’entreprise s’appuie sur un réseau de 10 bureaux et près de 400 collaborateurs. Elle indique avoir accompagné plus de 110 000 voyageurs et affiche un volume d’affaires de 170 millions d’euros. Le Collectionist souligne également figurer, pour la septième année consécutive, parmi les meilleures entreprises de voyage au monde selon Condé Nast Traveller.

In the role of chair of the board of directors, he will work alongside Max Aniort, cofounder and CEO of Le Collectionist, as well as the executive committee. His remit will include strategic steering of the company, improving operational performance, and supporting international expansion.

The work he has done with Olivier since his arrival as advisor and board member has already brought us a lot. His track record leading major global travel platforms is a valuable asset.

Olivier brings credibility and operational mastery that will help us reach the next milestones and strengthen our position in our key markets
“, notes Max Aniort in a press release.


A Strengthened Governance to Support Expansion

On his side, Olivier Grémillon believes the company has solid foundations to continue its development. “Le Collectionist has built a unique model and a rare brand of trust in the luxury world.

My objective is to put my experience at the service of Max and his teams to optimize our performance and ensure sustainable growth, without ever compromising the exclusivity and the attention to detail that define the collection
“, he declares.

With this governance evolution, Le Collectionist aims to strengthen its international presence while consolidating its position in the luxury travel segment.

According to the company, this appointment should enable the fusion of international development, financial performance, and the maintenance of the quality standards that define its identity.
