Why this page exists

You're not looking for a generic recruiter. Neither are we.

When Satispay needed to scale its French field sales team, or when Payhawk was building its enterprise AE bench in Paris, they didn't post a job ad. They called us.

Because the sales profiles that move markets in France β€” the AE who closes €200K ARR deals, the BDR who books 12 qualified meetings a week, the Country Manager who goes from zero to pipeline in 90 days β€” these people are not on LinkedIn looking for opportunities.

They're already performing. At a competitor. At a scale-up that's about to IPO. At a company that raised a Series B last quarter.

Finding them, convincing them to listen, and presenting them to you within 3-10 days: that's the only thing we do.

What makes France different

Why recruiting sales talent in France requires a specialist

The best profiles aren't looking

French Tech sales professionals with a strong track record receive 3–5 LinkedIn InMails per week. They ignore most of them. What gets them to move is a conversation with someone who knows their market, understands their next career step, and can articulate why your company is worth the risk. That's our agents.

Compensation is complex

French sales compensation differs from US or UK models. OTE construction, variable structure, BSPCE (warrants), meal vouchers, RTT β€” getting the package wrong means losing the candidate at offer stage. We benchmark every role against live market data before you go to market.

Cultural fit matters more than you think

A high-performing AE from a US company culture can fail in a French enterprise account. Autonomy expectations, management style, decision-making speed β€” we evaluate cultural alignment as rigorously as we evaluate sales skills. It's why our 90-day retention rate is above 94%.

Speed without compromise

We present first qualified profiles within 3-10 days of mandate signature. Not because we rush the process β€” because we maintain a live network of pre-qualified candidates. We know who's open, who's excellent, and who fits your specific brief before we even start the search.
