OUR HISTORY

1977

Created by the managing team of the executive search firm Manorga, Sirca Executive Search positions itself on the growing market of recruitment by advertisement, on the segment of middle management. Sirca, an acronym for "Société Internationale de Recherche de Cadres par Annonce" or "International Firm of Executive Recruitment through Advertisement ", is rapidly identified by its creative and quirky style, in a very conservative market back then.

1990

The Partners of Sirca Executive Search take over the management of the firm through an "LBO" process. From this point the firm will gradually move from advertisement recruitment towards executive search.

1998

Having become a thoroughly "headhunting" firm, Sirca Executive Search joins IMD International Search, a non-integrated search network present in over 20 firms globally, as an exclusive representant for the French market. That same year Sirca Executive Search takes on the presidency of the French professional organization Syntec Conseil en Recruitment.

2008

Sirca Executive Search is voted in the highly selective professional organization of executive search firms, AESC (Association of Executive Search and Leadership Consulting), benefitting from the cumulated expertise of other actors in the profession while contributing to the group. The AESC's objectives are to promote the best practices in our businesses, to uphold irreproachable standards of executive search in terms of ethics, commercial terms, etc.

2015

Sirca Executive Search leaves the Opera Avenue in Paris where it was located for about 15 years for new headquarters on the Rue de Miromesnil, at short distance from the heart of our political institutions. At the same moment Sirca Executive Search creates the brand "Trajectoires by Sirca" dedicated to mid-management recruitment – junior profiles, high potentials or experts. 

2017

Sirca Executive Search is a fully grown organization and celebrates the 40th anniversary of its foundation, on a highly competitive executive search market.

2019

For the third consecutive year, Sirca ranks among the best Executive Search firms in the  Palmares 2020 Les Echos/Statista

This nomination is a recognition of our constant focus on excellence in the execution of our missions and encourages us to go even further.
