Indeed, there are fewer recent graduates from scientific fields, and Human Resources managers from French and foreign companies are concerned. “66% of these managers believe they will face a problem recruiting senior executives in the coming years”* It is becoming increasingly difficult to find a director, whether in purchasing, logistics, project management, or company management.
Sedentary directors, need not apply.
Optioncarriere.com, an employment specialist on the internet, prides itself on listing the majority of job offers (see box) and is somewhat quick with the numbers. Even though 1,800,000 job offers are available in this field on the net, they are intended for applicants from all over the world. Therefore, one must be nomadic to start a new job in London, Cardiff, Glasgow, or even… Abu Dhabi.
But future managers can be reassured, the majority of overseas job offers are in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the Netherlands. Only a few hours away from your French home base.
