My story

I started Emérique & Partners on my own.
8 years later:

  • From 1 person, we have grown to 16,
  • From 1 geographical area, we’ve grown to 3,
  • From 1 single ‘recruitment’ service, we’ve moved to a consultancy of experts.

For over 15 years, I have collaborated with leading financial institutions and insurance firms. As market leaders in France, we are entering a phase of acceleration, with ambitious projects planned over the next three years. Our goal is to solidify our presence in France while expanding primarily into Germany and Luxembourg to strengthen our position across Europe. 

Thank you !

A huge thank you to our clients and candidates who have placed their trust in us since 2017 (and even since 2008 for some!), as well as to the entire team at Emérique & Partners Ltd. for their commitment, a true pillar of our success. ❤️

Finally, a big thank you to the British Recruitment Awards, Belinda Johnson, David Huntington and the judging panel for this honour.
