Early career

After 16 years at Pernod Ricard as a packaging manager and then as a logistics manager, he resumed his studies in logistics management to work as a consultant to local authorities.[2]

Political career

In 2016, Lambert advised Minister of the Economy, Industry and Digital Affairs Emmanuel Macron on a strategy to increase France's competence in logistics.[3]

In the Socialist Party's primaries ahead of the 2017 presidential elections, Lambert supported Jean-Luc Bennahmias.[4]

In parliament, Lambert serves on the Committee on Sustainable Development and Spatial Planning. He is also a member of the parliamentary friendship groups with Armenia, Benin, and Cuba.[5]

In the 2017 elections, Lambert was re-elected as a member of La République En Marche! (LREM).[6] After several attempts to create a parliamentary group separate from the LREM group, notably with Paul Molac and non-attached centre-left MPs,[7] he succeeded in October 2018 with the launch of the Liberties and Territories group.[8] He has since been serving as the group's chairman.[9]

Political positions

In April 2014, Lambert decided to vote against the party line and instead supported the budgetary stability pact introduced by Prime Minister Manuel Valls.[10]

In September 2018, after François de Rugy's appointment to the government, Lambert supported Barbara Pompili's candidacy for the presidency of the National Assembly.[11]
