Our recruiters bring sector expertise across engineering, finance, software, manufacturing, and healthcare. We build role scorecards, run competency interviews, and use validated assessments to identify qualified candidates with the right soft skills. Knowledge of GDPR, CNIL guidance, and French labor rules keeps every step compliant and professional.
We prefer a direct approach that reaches international profiles and passive candidates in France and abroad. For executive recruitment, we explain the trade-offs between retained search and contingent hiring, then align the model with risk, budget, and timing on the Lyon market.


We customize solutions to clients’ needs. We start with a focused discovery to understand goals, team structure, success metrics, must-haves, nice-to-haves, compensation bands, and timing. That input becomes a clear role scorecard and a sourcing plan aligned to the Lyon market and the wider Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. We choose the right mix of direct approach, referrals, and targeted research across France and abroad. Language requirements, mobility, and work authorization are factored in from the outset, so outreach stays precise and respectful.

Each assignment then sets an interview path that matches decision speed and stakeholder calendars. We confirm who signs off, the sequence of conversations, and any work-sample or technical checks. Update cadence, shortlist format, and comparison criteria are agreed early to keep choices transparent. If priorities shift, we recalibrate quickly, refresh the market map, and reset milestones. The result is focused shortlists, clean offers, and smooth start dates.

Identify &
Screen Talents

We map major players across Lyon’s economy and the wider Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes market. Sourcing blends direct approach, referrals, and targeted research to access qualified candidates and international profiles. Screening verifies achievements, mobility, and work authorization where relevant.

We coordinate start dates with managers and HR so handovers run smoothly. An integration plan supports the first 90 days with clear goals and check-ins. Feedback from clients and candidates helps refine future searches.
