Cécile Aboulikam and Flavie Launaire a strategic alliance for Alphea Conseil Nice

Back to articles | 29 January 2024 / Reading time: 5 minutes


Since last September, Cécile Aboulikam has been managing partner of the new Alphéa Conseil agency in Nice. Like the values that drive the network, investment in candidates and customer proximity are at the heart of the Nice-based firm's DNA. Meet a woman of commitment, for whom these cardinal virtues resonate, with her entire career path and her passion for human resources.

After more than 10 years as a corporate HR director in various groups (Satys Aéronautique, Pharmacie/Parapharmacie/Optique and Matériel médical Lafayette, then in Retail/Specialized Distribution), Cécile has set herself a new challenge: to set up her own recruitment and HR consulting agency.



It was important for me both to take on this challenge, while "playing collectively" i.e. feeling part of a network driven by the same values.


That's how this sportswoman and team sports enthusiast feels when she meets the head of the Toulouse agency, then Ludovic
D'hooghe, CEO of the Alphea Conseil network. "I realized that our desires really converged. Ludovic was offering me the opportunity to open an agency while benefiting from the support of Flavie Launaire, associate manager of the PACA region. A unique opportunity for me to prove myself in entrepreneurship without ever really feeling alone."

Capitalizing on proven expertise in the fields of aeronautics, consulting/service, pharmaceuticals/healthcare and specialized/retail distribution, Cécile surrounds herself with consultants with complementary skills. "We currently have two people in our Nice - Sophia Antipolis branch, and I will soon be recruiting another recruitment consultant with specific knowledge of the engineering field, as our location in the heart of Sophia Antipolis requires us to be able to recruit highly qualified profiles, such as engineers, too. Our activity is an extension of what has already been successfully carried out by my associate Flavie Launaire, who has recognized expertise in the PACA region.

Cécile ABOULIKAM's expertise at the service of Nice-based companies.

Cécile Aboulikam, associate director of the agency Alphea Conseil in Nice - Sophia Antipolis, embodies unrivalled operational expertise, forged over more than 10 years as Director of Human Resources within major groups. Her transition to entrepreneurship marks the emergence of a dynamic figure, ready to put her know-how to work for Nice-based companies.

At the heart of her approach are solid operational values, shaped by her experience as a HRD. Cécile fully understands the challenges facing companies in the Nice basin. Her commitment to operational excellence is reflected in every aspect of her work, going hand in hand with a strategic vision that transcends mere recruitment processes.

What Cécile wants to pass on to managers in the Nice area goes beyond traditional recruitment. She aspires to be much more than just a service provider. Her message revolves around collaboration, a deep understanding of each company's specific needs, and the creation of lasting partnerships. By entrusting their recruitment to Cécile, managers can expect a personalized approach, tailored to their company's culture and objectives.
Dynamic and visionary, Cécile Aboulikam brings a fresh energy to the Nice recruitment scene. Her experience as a former HRD brings a unique perspective, combining an understanding of operational needs with an in-depth knowledge of the inner workings of companies. She is thus perfectly positioned to anticipate and respond to the specific challenges that local companies may face.




Le cabinet de recrutement Alphéa Conseil de Nice conjugue efficacité avec proximité

A former HRD herself, Cécile knows better than anyone the virtues of customer proximity. "A firm that doesn't know you can't present you with candidates with whom you're assured of a profile that's a perfect match, not only with the position, but above all with the company's values. It was precisely because the Alphéa Conseil network was different that I wanted to join. Its positioning is what I would have liked to have found when I was looking for a job myself. And because making a difference also means behaving differently, Cécile doesn't hesitate to immerse herself in the day-to-day life of a client company and put herself "in the shoes" of the candidate. I can spend half a day at a customer's premises to analyze the proposed work environment, meet the future candidate's manager(s) and colleagues, and the proposed missions, so as to carry out the most accurate sourcing possible."

In addition to proximity, the satisfaction of all corporate clients also represents a cardinal value. "We've just opened our firm and it's crucial to build customer loyalty. In a second phase, we aim to develop our portfolio, across all business sectors."
The PACA region, and Nice in particular, is indeed recruiting all types of profiles. Recruitment is really regaining momentum, and all business sectors are hiring. From hospitality-restauration to'IT, engineering, commerce/retail, real estate, building, banking/insurance, support functions... we really need to be multispecialists, as our region also attracts a lot of candidates from all over France. So, when we deem it necessary, or when our customer asks us to, we don't hesitate to run preliminary tests (personality, business skills/expertise, software proficiency, languages...), this to optimize candidate matching, and gain in efficiency.

Organized like "an apartment", the Nice-based firm aims to be friendly. There's no point in making a candidate nervous. That's why I never interview candidates in my office or over lunch, for example. Here, everything takes place "in the living room". Over a cup of coffee/tea or a glass of water, we talk as fluidly and naturally as possible. This is to put each candidate at ease and leave room for relationship, communication and human discovery. In this way, we quickly perceive the candidate's true personality and can then present our client with the three (or four) profiles most in line with the mission's expectations and the company's values". Alphéa Conseil is now in a position to detect this skilful combination of know-how and interpersonal skills for all companies in and around Nice.
