direction Europe
Chargé de mission à la direction Europe
This is a job title of a man who works for an international clothing retailer.
I am reposting this question now with a different focus. I have found out, from a different source, that chargé de mission means official representative. Now I need to find out what direction Europe means.
I don't know if it means European development, or European affairs..... any ideas?

John Peterson
: Something like this - especially as I'm not sure that "official representative" for "chargé de mission" works in this context. For a trade delegation but not a company. Maybe European Management Team Leader/Head?

I agree completely with your comment about "official rep", but since Jana had posted that before I was hesitant to say anything! :)
