Our consultants are proven headhunters who combine market research, structured interviews, and competency-based assessment to identify the right candidates for critical positions. The team draws on hands-on hiring experience in finance, technology, luxury, tourism, and other diverse sectors, bringing a deep understanding of employer needs and candidate motivations.

They apply a direct approach for executives who are not active on job boards, engage discreetly, and map companies across Paris—from La Défense to the Champs Élysées and near the Eiffel Tower—to surface ideal candidates. Their ability to read a job description, decode skills, and test for leadership potential helps clients recruit top talent with speed and precision.

We customize solutions to clients’ needs: We shape each engagement around the role, the company, and the market, combining local research with a global network to attract the best talent. Our methods flex to the assignment—executive search Paris mandates, urgent interim needs, or multi-hire projects for start-ups and established French companies.

Industries We Serve

Haldren’s goal is to help companies grow with hires who deliver measurable business impact. We achieve this by aligning recruitment with company culture, strategic plans, and the realities of the global economy. Our agency covers a diverse range of industries and adapts research to each market’s hiring patterns.

Our Recruitment Process

Contact us

Clients can share the role, context, and timeline through our site or by speaking with a Haldren consultant. We listen first, clarify goals, and agree on the decision path and stakeholders. A dedicated team confirms confidentiality rules and the preferred communication rhythm.

Briefing

We prepare a comprehensive brief that defines the position, success criteria, and cultural markers. The document covers must-have skills, leadership style, reporting lines, and compensation ranges. It also outlines an outreach plan across recruitment agencies, networks, and direct channels.

Identify &
Screen Talents

Researchers map target companies in Paris, France, and Europe, then apply a direct approach to engage passive candidates. Recruiters run structured interviews, verify achievements, and assess leadership, language skills, and mobility. We present a short list with evidence-based notes and risk flags.

Interview & Offer

We guide panel set-up, interview sequencing, and scorecards so employers can compare candidates fairly. Consultants prepare candidates and hiring teams to reduce bias and prevent misalignment on expectations. We offer strategy, references, and acceptance, protecting confidentiality at every step.

Onboard
& Integrate

After hire, we stay close through the first 90 days to address early challenges. The team supports goal setting, stakeholder mapping, and feedback loops to secure quick wins. We check progress with both the client and the executive to reinforce success.
