An executive search practice

Volaire is an independent executive search practice supporting organizations in the recruitment of key professionals.

Founded in 2011, the practice conducts direct search and selection mandates in France and internationally, working closely with founders, executives and leadership teams.

Our work focuses on roles where judgment, discretion and long-term alignment matter more than speed or volume.

Assignments often concern leadership, senior management and expert roles that play a structuring or representational role within organizations.

How we work

Our approach is deliberately progressive and open-ended.

We privilege in-depth conversations over standardized interviews, allowing for a nuanced understanding of individuals, contexts and expectations on both sides.

Each engagement is conducted in close collaboration with decision-makers, ensuring clarity, trust and alignment throughout the process.

Beyond technical assessment, we conduct rigorous reference checks with former employers and professional counterparts, with particular attention paid to integrity, consistency and professional trajectory.

Our commitment

We believe that successful appointments are built on mutual understanding rather than transactional matching.

Our role is to create the conditions for meaningful dialogue between organizations and exceptional individuals, with respect for confidentiality, discretion and time.

Some of our most meaningful collaborations remain confidential.
