Senior Recruitment in France

Established in 1990, AP Executive rapidly progressed as a world-leading, privately owned executive recruiting firm. With a presence in more than 55 jurisdictions across the globe, our global search consultants are experts at matching our clients with top executives to form mutually beneficial relationships.

We work on all types of executive vacancies within the financial services sector in France, including positions in trust, private banking, cryptocurrency, fintech, blockchain, accountancy and much more. We also work to fill permanent, temporary and contract-based positions.

Since the tasks, requirements, education and experience vary from role to role, our executive headhunters know exactly what it takes to create successful matches. Initially, we assess what the client needs, then perform comprehensive recruiting solutions to produce the ultimate shortlist.

What’s more, we take into account the importance of personality when hiring new staff, and understand that the ideal candidate for one client can be a world away from our next client’s idea of ideal.
