For all positions, whether with Keller or with our clients, applicants and employees are considered on skills, qualifications, experience, and the needs of the role, without regard to any characteristic protected by French and EU law. In line with the Labour Code (Article L1132-1) and the Penal Code (Article 225-1), we do not discriminate on grounds such as origin, sex, family situation, pregnancy, physical appearance, economic vulnerability, surname, place of residence, state of health, loss of autonomy, disability, genetic characteristics, morals, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, political opinions, trade union activity, whistleblower status, the ability to speak a language other than French, or actual or assumed membership of an ethnic group, a Nation, a so-called race, or a religion. The law adds to this list over time, and we comply with any further protected ground. ### Diversity and Reasonable Accommodation We work to build a diverse and inclusive workplace and to keep selection based on objective, job-related criteria. We provide reasonable accommodation (aménagements raisonnables) to people with disabilities and to pregnant individuals through an interactive process, and we meet the French obligation to employ workers with disabilities (OETH) where it applies. ### Pay and Pay Transparency We apply equal pay for equal work, or work of equal value, between women and men. Where required, employers publish their gender equality index (Index de l'égalité professionnelle) each year. As the EU Pay Transparency Directive (2023/970) takes effect in French law, job postings will state pay or a pay range based on objective criteria, and we will not ask candidates about their pay history. For client positions, pay information appears in the posting or is shared during interviews, in line with the law. Actual pay may depend on skills, experience, the role, the location, and internal comparisons. ### Harassment We prohibit all workplace harassment, including moral harassment, sexual harassment, and sexist behaviour as defined by the Labour Code. Harassment based on any protected characteristic is not tolerated. We act to prevent it, investigate complaints, and respond when needed. ### Right to Work We verify that every person hired is authorized to work. Nationals from outside the EU and EEA must hold a valid residence document allowing work, or a separate work authorization (autorisation de travail), which we check before employment begins where the law requires. ### Data Protection We process recruitment data under the GDPR (RGPD), the French Data Protection Act, and CNIL guidance. We collect only data that is relevant and necessary to assess a candidate for the role. Candidates may access, correct, and erase their data, and object to its use, within the limits set by law. See our Privacy Policy for details. ### Use of Artificial Intelligence We may use AI tools to support recruitment by helping review and assess candidate materials. AI is never used to automatically reject or disqualify a candidate or to make a final hiring decision. Every AI-assisted evaluation is reviewed by an experienced recruiter, and all hiring decisions are made by qualified humans. This reflects the GDPR right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, and the EU AI Act, which treats recruitment AI as high risk and requires human oversight, transparency, and record-keeping. ### Other Points We do not request or use genetic information except where the law allows. France supports veteran employment through specific national schemes; veteran status is not itself one of the protected discrimination grounds, but we apply any veteran measures the law requires. A person who believes they have faced discrimination may contact the Defender of Rights (Défenseur des droits) or the labour court (Conseil de prud'hommes). This posting may be for a position with Keller Executive Search or with one of our clients. The specific employer is identified during the application process, and requirements may vary by employer and location. ## Apply [Apply at Keller Executive Search](https://apply.workable.com/keller-executive-search/j/7CF7E59479/apply) --- Powered by [Workable](https://www.workable.com)
