Didier served as the Administrator Superior of Wallis and Futuna for two years, from 2006 to 2008. Didier's time was marked with tensions and succession struggles between several of Wallis and Futuna's royal families and clans following the death of Tomasi Kulimoetoke II in 2007. [5] Didier left Wallis and Futuna for metropolitan France in 2008. He was succeeded as Administrator Superior of Wallis and Futuna by Philippe Paolantoni. [5]
Didier was appointed the Prefect of the Haute-Loire (Upper Loire) department by the French Cabinet at a meeting on 28 July 2008. [5]
He was Prefect without assignment [6] before taking up office as High Commissioner of the Republic in French Polynesia in December 2010.
