The Adecco Group appointed Marc Gomes as president of its French business. Gomes had previously served as HR director of the company in France and the rest of Europe for nearly two years. He will remain in the HR director Europe role along with his new title.

Gomes joined the Adecco Group in February 2021 as senior VP and global head of Adecco training.

His prior experience in human resources included operational positions at Areva and Carrefour. He is an engineer by training.

“Marc’s arrival is good news in this role, which requires leadership, vision [and] also long-term commitment to the new challenges of recruitment, in particular the arrival of artificial intelligence in our businesses,” Denis Machuel, CEO of the Adecco Group, said in a press release as translated from French. “He has all the human qualities and technical skills to successfully carry out his mission in a tense economic context.”

The Adecco Group is the largest staffing firm in France with a 14.6% market share, according to SIA research. The French staffing market posted revenue of €33.9 billion in 2023.
