Strategic sectors at the heart of common challenges of sovereignty and innovation

Against a backdrop of major geopolitical, technological, and industrial transformations, the aerospace, defense, and space sectors occupy a strategic position in the French and European economies. They are at the heart of challenges relating to sovereignty and industrial capacity, cybersecurity and other threats, technological innovation, and environmental transition.

Driven by large-scale programs, ramping up of production, stringent regulatory requirements, and increased international competition, these sectors are facing a growing shortage of skilled talent.

Engineering, production, quality, programs, supply chain, IT, cybersecurity, and specialized support functions are becoming key drivers of performance and competitiveness. In this context, access to expert, sometimes security-cleared, agile, and committed profiles is a determining factor in the success of manufacturers and institutional players.

Our expertise

In a highly regulated, demanding, and confidential environment, recruitment in the aerospace, defense, and space sectors requires a detailed understanding of the professions, regulatory environments, sector-specific constraints, and security issues.

Thanks to our innovative tools, our tailor-made approach, and a team of specialized consultants, we support our clients in identifying and recruiting the best talent for permanent, fixed-term, temporary, freelance, or interim management positions throughout France. We operate across the entire value chain: engineering, production, programs, quality, supply chain, IT, cybersecurity, support functions, and management.
