Jérémie Gallon

Prior to McLarty, Jérémie spent three years leading AmCham France, which he turned into a proactive and involved “do-tank,” putting AmCham France at the heart of several economic policy matters and helping drive public debate.

Jérémie was posted to Washington from 2015 to 2017 by the European External Action Service, the EU’s foreign service arm, as Senior Political Advisor to the EU Ambassador. There, he got to know Washington and its institutions well.

Previously, he worked for the World Bank in the Balkans and started his career as a lawyer at Davis Polk & Wardwell’s Paris office. He worked on numerous transactions in the defense and energy sectors, as legal counsel to the French state.

Jérémie is a non-resident senior fellow with the Atlantic Council’s Europe Center, a member of the Advisory Council of Responsible Business Initiative for Justice, and an adjunct professor at Sciences Po. He has also been a regular contributor to top-tier media such as the Financial Times, Foreign Policy, Politico, The American Interest, Le Figaro, L’Obs, L’Express, and Esprit.

His first book, Journal d’un jeune diplomate dans l’Amérique de Trump, was published by Gallimard in 2018. His second book, Henry Kissinger. L’Européen, was published by Gallimard in 2021.

Jérémie holds a master’s degree in law from Harvard Law School and University Paris I Pantheon-La Sorbonne, and a master’s degree in management from HEC Paris. He is also a former student of Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management in Beijing.
