From Consultant to Executive: how I pushed open the doors to entrepreneurship

Montauban, September 2024 - When I started my career in Brittany, I never imagined I'd one day be heading up a recruitment agency in Montauban. Yet it was here, in this Tarn-et-Garonne town, that I discovered my true vocation for recruitment and human resources. Today, as head of Alphea Conseil in Montauban, I draw on the solid values and proven methods that have marked my career path.

The start of my entrepreneurial adventure

My adventure at Alphea Conseil began in January 2021, when I joined the recruitment firm as an employee. With a solid background in sales and a degree in human resources, I already had a clear vision: recruitment was my path. From day one, I was seduced by the human approach of Alphea Conseil, which values quality of service and demand towards its customers. These values, deeply rooted in me, have been my driving force to fully invest myself in this company.

In June 2024, an unexpected opportunity presented itself to me: to take the helm of the consulting, recruitment, training and strategy firm Alphéa Conseil in Montauban. Evolving from salaried employee to manager was a daunting challenge, but I knew I could bring unique added value to this firm and my clients.

Development anchored in the Midi-Pyrénées region

The city of Montauban, capital of Tarn-et-Garonne, benefits from a dynamic economic fabric, with business parks such as Albasud, Bressols, or Eurocentre, home to companies in a variety of sectors, from agrifood to logistics to cutting-edge technologies. Founded in September 2021 to meet the needs of companies in the Midi-Pyrénées region, the Montauban-based recruitment firm has quickly established itself as a key player. Its strong point: being the only firm in town offering a offre 360° for its customers.

Renowned companies such as CA Traiteur & Salaisons in Lafrançaise, the Biscuiterie Poult, specialized in the production of quality cookies, MAF Agribotic, a leader in agricultural automation solutions, as well as DRB, our accounting firm, regularly call on recruitment firms like Alphea Conseil to identify and attract talent capable of meeting their specific needs. Other major players are also present within the Montauban region, such as Intersport, Litrimarché, specializing in bedding and furnishings, Geodis, and XPO Logistics on Eurocentre or Fayat, a major construction group with a presence in the Montauban region.

Whether in the agroalimentaire, the logistics, the retail or the BTP, these companies are looking for a variety of profiles to meet their recruitment needs. Our ability to support these local and international companies, particularly for recruitment in English and Spanish, is a major asset that contributes to our success and that of our partners.

Recognized expertise at the service of companies

What drove me to become a manager was my deep conviction in the values that are the strength of Alphea Conseil. We place quality of service, personalized support and proximity with our customers at the heart of our approach. As associate director of the Alphéa Conseil network, I make sure to preserve this corporate culture while adding my personal touch.

Every company deserves to find the talent that will make it grow, and every candidate deserves an opportunity that matches their skills and aspirations. Thanks to my background, I've developed cutting-edge expertise in sales and support functions, with a command of English that enables me to support international companies in their recruitment.

My objective is simple: to ensure that each customer receives a tailored recruitment solution, by investing myself personally in each assignment.

The strength of the Alphea Conseil network

Being part of the Alphéa Conseil network is an undeniable advantage. Our firm in Montauban is not just a local player, but part of an influential international network. This allows us to share knowledge, collaborate on large-scale projects, and benefit from high-performance tools to meet my customers' requirements. As a manager, I have the opportunity to contribute to the group's global strategy, actively participating in seminars, workshops, and working groups where we exchange best practices.

Why trust me?

What sets the Alphéa Conseil recruitment firm in Montauban apart is my commitment to building a relationship of trust with every customer. I don't just fill in job descriptions; I immerse myself in my customers' world to understand their real needs and suggest suitable candidates. This approach has enabled me to develop lasting, trusting relationships with local and national companies. The trust my customers place in me is the fruit of many years of hard work, transparency and concrete results.

It is this personalized approach that makes Alphea Conseil Montauban a partner of choice for any company looking to recruit top talent.
