About Marie
Hello,
You are a founder, CEO, or executive leading a growing startup or SME, and you know that your people are your greatest asset. Yet attracting, engaging, and retaining the right talent remains a real challenge… and without solid HR foundations, growth eventually slows down or stalls.
👉 That’s where I come in.
🚀 What I bring to the table
Build a strong and credible employer brand to naturally attract the right profiles.
Define an HR strategy aligned with your business ambitions.
Set up pragmatic and efficient HR processes: recruitment, onboarding, feedback, and performance management.
Strengthen employee engagement and retention to stabilize and accelerate your growth.
💡 My added value
✔ 10+ years of HR experience, including over 5 years as an international HR Manager.
✔ A dual expertise: HR + digital marketing (DMI certified) → I connect HR strategy with digital visibility to boost your employer attractiveness.
✔ A strategic, pragmatic, and results-driven approach: HR becomes a growth lever, not just a support function.
✔ Multicultural experience adapted to the realities and challenges of startups and SMEs.
🔑 Types of projects I work on:
Employer Brand Audit & Action Plan (3-day express audit, quick wins in 2 weeks, or full transformation in 4 weeks): diagnosis, EVP, job ad redesign, LinkedIn and career page optimization, employer content plan.
HR structuring & operational support: onboarding, performance management, continuous feedback, talent development.
One-off assignments: job ad rewrites, recruitment process optimization, manager workshops.
👉 My goal: help you turn HR into a strategic asset, so your company can reach its growth ambitions faster.
