Emérique is an award-winning entrepreneur with over 15 years of expertise in the headhunting of niche profiles; 

Her rich pan-European experience has enabled her to build a solid network of professionals in the banking, asset management and insurance industries, in particular with actuaries, quantitative analysts, audit, risk and compliance experts. 

Son réseau, principalement basé en France, s'étend au Royaume-Uni, à la Suisse, à la Belgique, au Luxembourg, à l'Amérique du Nord et à l'Afrique, où America s'est vu confier des projets de recrutement internationaux.

Having accumulated numerous recognitions and promotions linked to her performance during her career, she took up the challenge of successively setting up the insurance divisions of a major player in international banking recruitment, for its French and British subsidiaries, by setting up teams of specialized consultants. Following this experience as a Consultant and then Principal, she was recruited as a Manager and then promoted to Associate Director to establish from scratch the French activities of a leader in international headhunting dedicated to the banking and insurance industries.

Forte de ces expériences diversifiées qui lui ont permis de construire un riche réseau, de sa passion pour l'établissement de relations à long terme et de sa volonté d'apporter une touche consultative, naturelle et dynamique, Emérique a décidé de créer son cabinet de chasse Emérique & Partners en 2017.
