A successful expansion does not depend primarily on a market or a product. It depends on the leader who drives it on the ground. We support companies crossing borders—from France to the Asia-Pacific region, as well as from the Asia-Pacific region and Europe to France—in recruiting the leadership team that will embody their ambition on site.

The France and APAC bridge

We support French companies establishing themselves in the Asia-Pacific region, as well as Asian or European companies launching their operations in France, in recruiting their local executive teams. This is a dual-flow expertise, which is rare for an independent firm.

France as a springboard

Our international clients choose France to target the European market and for the quality of its talent. We know this pool of executives deeply; it is our home turf, and we know how to interpret it for a foreign player discovering it.

Secure the first top executive

The first hire in an unfamiliar country is the most risky. We understand the codes, career paths, and signals of a market you are just discovering, helping you secure this foundational decision—the one upon which everything that follows depends.

Supporting an expansion is not just about hunting for a profile. We align headquarters and local teams on the executive to be recruited, we translate the realities of a market that the client may not fully master—from the social and contractual framework to the creation of an attractive and fair package—and then we conduct the search through a direct approach. A role as an expansion partner, as much as an executive recruiter.
