Expertise
We assist businesses, large groups, public institutions, and start-ups in their development and transformation. Our clients work in various sectors and are based in Paris, around France, and abroad.
Varied sectors of activity
-
Luxury goods
We assist luxury goods firms in recruiting their employees by allowing them to integrate candidates with international profiles. We recruit for major luxury brands and living heritage companies that wish to preserve their traditional manufacturing processes. This concept can be applied in many areas and we have clients in the fields of haute couture, leather goods, jewellery, and the hospitality industry. We are partners in the “Innovation, Design & Luxury Goods” Master’s Degree programme and involved in the training programme’s development.
-
Retail
Since the company was founded, we have worked with specialised retail businesses and mass-market distribution companies in recruiting their teams. Our knowledge of the requirements in this field allows us to present our clients with candidates combining operational and strategic skills in order to adapt to the sector’s constant changes. We also recently assisted a large number of clients with their transition to e-commerce and omnichannel solutions.
-
Fashion
Since Chantal Baudron was founded, we have assisted established and emerging fashion brands in recruiting their employees on a daily basis. We have worked on every possible role, in a field we have loved and known for a long time, and have even contributed to redefining some of them based on the product being marketed. We are partners of the Institut Français de la Mode (French Fashion Institute) and members of the Conseil des Affaires Académiques (Academic Affairs Council), which are involved with developing training programmes.
-
Beauty
We assist large established and emerging brands commercialising perfume, care products, make-up, spas, and specialised retail brands in the beauty field. We follow this field particularly closely because of the significant changes it is undergoing following the introduction of new innovative concepts. We are a part of the CEW network and, as a business angel, Chantal Baudron contributes significantly to the development of start-ups in the cosmetics field.
-
Lifestyle
We are particularly devoted to the art de vivre sector, which we have been familiar with for a long time thanks to the confidence shown to us by tableware, decorative arts, and furnishing brands as well as editors, food and the gourmet cuisine segment. We frequently assist specialised brands from this field in their development and transformation. We also created this division thanks to the vibrancy of this sector and the innovative concepts and qualitative means of communication with their client communities that have emerged over the past few years.
-
Health
We are active in the pharmaceutical industry in the search for operational and general management positions. We advise all international health and wellness companies, whether industrial, commercial or service-based: pharmaceutical laboratories, subcontractors, medical devices, dietary supplements and pharmacy groups.
-
Digital
For the past 10 years, we have been assisting our clients, whether omnichannel or pure players, in their digital evolution by recruiting web and e-commerce experts. We also advise start-ups in the recruitment of their teams. These positions are often newly created and we put a special emphasis on the entrepreneurial dimension of the candidates and their ability to quickly integrate a constantly evolving, rapidly developing organisation.
-
Services
Digital, data and innovation-related activities are a fourth pillar of the economy in the service sector. It’s a sector that offers terrain for new emerging professions that are now undergoing unprecedented growth.
Our Services Practice supports all the players in this market, whether tech firms, start ups, software editors (CRM, AI, chat bot), or BPO specialists (customer relations experts, dematerialisation, etc.). -
