About Our Client

Our client has been developing SaaS solutions to increase employee efficiency and engagement. They address the main administrative and HR management issues: time and activities, expense reports, personnel administration, annual reviews, and measuring well-being at work. Their solutions are used today by over one million users in all types of companies (from the chic hotel chain Accor to the surf brand Rip Curl) and particularly in those with strong growth developing internationally (Novo Nordisk, Nexthink, etc.). While they operate in the very serious field of management tools, their work is guided by the belief that a management software doesn't have to be gray, ugly, or boring. That is why they attach great importance to the design of their interfaces and the user experience.

In 2022 our client celebrated its 20th anniversary and embarked on its internationalization journey by establishing its first two subsidiaries outside of France, in Barcelona and Geneva. They now want to develop their potential and footprint in the DACH market, by growing their client base not only in Switzerland, but also in Germany.
