About us

Chantal Baudron, is named after its founder and plays a leading part in the field of recruitment.

Chantal Baudron founded her company in 1980, after a successful career as a Managing Director at Bernard Krief Consultants what was, at the time, the largest structure in the field of recruitment consultancy in France.

She started from scratch and chose a slow growth, focusing on the quality of her co-workers, the efficiency of their methods, and building lasting relationships with clients. Over the last 30 years, Chantal Baudron has built a renowned boutique executive search firm that is highly respected by clients and candidates. The percentage of loyal clients that have reassured Chantal Baudron as to the quality of their service. Some of them have been working with them for 30 years. They are the best promoters.

Lastly, meeting young start-up founders motivated her to assist them by investing in their companies while continuing to advise them, particularly in terms of human resources. That is how Chantal proudly found herself nominated female business angel of the year in France in 2018 (Etudes Challenges Angel Square).
