Compétences Plus

What Compétences Plus does

Compétences Plus is a French groupement d'employeurs (employer group) established in 2010 and headquartered in Colomiers, in the Toulouse metropolitan area. Operating as an association loi 1901 under the French law of July 25, 1985 governing employer groups, the organization recruits qualified support function professionals — HR, finance, quality, communication, UX, and administrative roles — on permanent CDI contracts and assigns them on a part-time shared basis (temps partagé) to its member companies. The member companies, primarily TPE/PME and innovation-sector firms in the Occitanie region, access specialized expertise they could not justify as a full-time hire, while the shared employees gain CDI stability and cross-company experience.

The company's service portfolio is anchored on four core offerings: HR needs analysis, end-to-end recruitment management, mise à disposition (placement of qualified staff), and full administrative employee management including payroll and career support. Around this core, Compétences Plus has added extended Prestations RH covering regulatory compliance (DUERP, postings), HR tool structuring, and custom HR training. There is no proprietary technology platform; the offering is delivered through a consultative, relationship-driven process with member adhesion validated by the board of directors.

Revenue is generated through time-based professional services fees paid by member companies for access to shared staff. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is sales-led and regionally concentrated, with distribution supported by direct contact at the Colomiers headquarters and Toulouse secondary office, an active LinkedIn presence, and participation in regional events alongside institutional partners including CRGE Occitanie, CPME 31, CEO Ouest Toulousain, CCI Toulouse, and Apec. Ownership is member-driven via a board of directors drawn from member companies, with no outside equity, no funding rounds, and no disclosed revenue figures.

Revenue model

1. Shared employment / HR services: Compétences Plus generates revenue through the shared employment model (temps partagé). The organization hires employees in CDI (permanent contracts) and makes them available to member companies on a part-time basis. Member companies pay for access to qualified support function expertise without the overhead of a full-time hire. The model enables companies to access specialized skills that are difficult to recruit and retain in part-time positions.

Compétences Plus is a French "groupement d'employeurs" (employer group) that hires qualified support-function professionals on permanent contracts (CDI) and makes them available to member companies on a part-time basis. The organization handles the full employment lifecycle — needs analysis, recruitment, administrative management, payroll, and career management — enabling TPE/PME and growing companies to access expert-level talent (HR, finance, communication, quality, UX, accounting, commercial) without committing to full-time hires.

Product overview

Compétences Plus is a 'groupement d'employeurs' (employer association) founded in 2010, providing a platform of shared part-time employment services in support and cross-functional roles. The core offering is the temps partagé (shared time) staffing service, which places qualified employees across multiple member companies on a part-time basis. This is supported by complementary services including HR needs analysis, recruitment management, and administrative employee management. The company also offers additional HR prestations including recruitment support, HR tool structuring, regulatory compliance, and custom HR training. Member companies gain access to a range of qualified profiles including HR Managers, Quality Managers, Management Controllers, Communication Officers, UX/ Web Designers, Administrative/Accounting Assistants, Multi-skilled Assistants, Commercial Assistants, and Mission Managers, all available on flexible part-time schedules.

Broad incumbents

• ManpowerGroup France: Global staffing and workforce solutions giant with a large French operation. Comparable because it competes for the same TPE/PME staffing wallet in Toulouse and across France, though it operates a much broader portfolio and lacks the curated 'groupement d'employeurs' CDI-share model.
• Adecco France: One of the largest generalist staffing firms in France, providing temporary, permanent, and outsourced HR services. Comparable as a direct competitor for the same local SME support-function hiring demand, but at significantly larger scale and without the groupement d'employeurs legal structure.
• Randstad France: Major French staffing provider covering temporary work, permanent placement, and HR solutions including the Expectra professional staffing brand. Comparable because it targets the same administrative, clerical, and professional support roles that Compétences Plus places with its members.
• PageGroup (Michael Page) France: International professional recruitment firm with strong French presence focused on middle-management and support functions (HR, finance, marketing). Comparable on the support-function placement side of the business, but operates via direct permanent placement rather than shared CDI employment.
• Hays France: Specialist professional recruiter active in France across accountancy, HR, tech, and support functions. Comparable because it competes for the same qualified support-function professionals that Compétences Plus pools into its member companies.
• Synergie: French-headquartered staffing group providing temporary work, permanent placement, and HR services across France including Occitanie. Comparable as a regional staffing competitor for the same TPE/PME and growing-company customer base in Toulouse.
• Crit: French staffing and HR services group (Groupe Crit) with national coverage including Toulouse. Comparable as a multi-service staffing competitor targeting similar SME customers for temporary and permanent support-function placements.
• Robert Half France: Global professional staffing firm with French operations focused on finance, accounting, administrative, and support-function placements. Comparable as a direct competitor for the same administrative and accounting support roles that form a core part of Compétences Plus's temps partagé offering.

Direct peers

• Fed Group: French staffing and recruitment specialist group with brands in finance, legal, IT, and support functions (Fed Finance, Fed Supply, Fed Legal). Comparable because it focuses on specialized support-function recruitment for SMEs and growing companies, closely overlapping Compétences Plus's core candidate profiles.
• GEIQ (Groupements d'Employeurs pour l'Insertion et la Qualification): National French network of employer groups focused on alternation and qualification pathways. Comparable because it operates the same 'groupement d'employeurs' legal framework and shared-employment model, providing a directly analogous structure (though with a stronger insertion/alternance orientation).
