At Paranal Observatory, I am Deputy Head of the Science Operations Department which encompasses about 40 astronomers, 20 engineers and an executive assistant. I support the science operations of ESO's wide-field imagers, in particular VIMOS (Instrument Scientist) and OmegaCAM (2nd Instrument Scientist).

Between December 2009 and July 2014, I also coordinated the activities of the General Operations Group (internal link) on Paranal.
