  -    -  Governance

The Foundation is managed by a board of directors of 12 members divided in three colleges : founders, legal members and qualified members. The board of directors  is supported by a Scientific Council whose members’ collective expertise covers the various fields the Foundation deals with.

Giving evidence of the vitality of the Fondation des Treilles, new committees have been created to support the board of directors in the development of new activities :

  • The “Portfolio management orientation Committee
  • The “Jean Schlumberger Centre Steering Committee”: in charge of the setting up and the development of the eponymous Centre of literary studies of the Foundation
  • The “Artistic and Cultural Heritage Committee” which has been set up to reflect on the development and the creation of a research activity on the Foundation’s artistic collection and estate.

All the activities, in their diversity, also depend on the strong implication and dedication of the Foundation’ staff. About thirty employees, distributed in various teams, ensure, under the responsibility of the managing director, the organization of the various activities, the library management, the maintenance of the landscaped and agricultural spaces, the general administration and the accounting as well as the reception of the hosts of the foundation, with the high quality wanted by the founder.
