On December 9, 2014, Nicolas Sarkozy, elected president of the UMP, appointed him as national secretary of the UMP in charge of industry and SMEs.[5]

He ran again in the 2017 legislative elections and won in the second round with 51.50% against La République en Marche candidate Guillaume Gibouin.[6] To comply with the law on the non-accumulation of mandates, he resigned from his position as vice-president of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes regional council.[7]
