one last question?
With Muzzo, you set the fee for each role, between 5 and 30%, and you only pay it on hire. No deposit, no fixed fees. A process engineer or maintenance manager you need to bring from a nearby site isn't hired like a role already open: the fee follows how hard the role is to fill.
You have a double guarantee. If your new hire leaves within 3 months, we restart the search at no cost. If we don't find a replacement within 4 months, we refund 50% of the fees. On average, 94% of Muzzo hires are still in post after 3 months.

hiring in Châtellerault: what you need to know
how do you choose a recruitment agency in Châtellerault?
In Châtellerault, the choice of agency depends mostly on role type: engineering, production and industrial maintenance roles aren't hired like classic services roles. A generalist agency often misses candidates already in post at a nearby industrial site.
Muzzo flips this: instead of one generalist agency for Châtellerault, we direct your role to whichever of our 2,500 selected headhunters gets the best results in that specific field, and you have just one point of contact.
how much does a recruitment agency cost in Châtellerault?
Agency fees depend mostly on role seniority and billing model: fixed fee, salary percentage, or non-refundable deposit at search launch. For an engineer or site director role in Châtellerault, the bill quickly climbs with flat-fee agencies.
At Muzzo, you set the fee between 5 and 30%, and it's only due on hire. No deposit, no fees if the search doesn't result in a hire.
why is industry an increasing share of employment in Châtellerault?
According to Insee, 27.8% of jobs in Châtellerault were in industry in 2023, up from 24.6% in 2017 and 25.7% in 2012: a clear trend after a dip. The share of skilled workers is following the same pattern, from 25.9% to 28.2% over the period.
This trend is confirmed on the ground: sites of Thales, Safran Aircraft Engines and Marelli Automotive Lighting France are based in Châtellerault, confirmed by the official business registry. With 14,618 salaried jobs by end of 2024, Châtellerault is the 2nd-largest town in the Vienne department by employment, behind Poitiers.
what is the Grand Châtellerault metropolitan area for a recruiter?
At the Grand Châtellerault metropolitan level, not the town alone, the area has over 8,300 industrial jobs, or 40.1% of local employment, split between aerospace (2,500 jobs, the leading sector), automotive (1,600 jobs), cosmetics and clothing (1,696 jobs), food and agriculture (685 jobs) and metallurgy (585 jobs). A member of the national Territories of Industry programme, the area entered phase II of this programme in 2023, running through 2027.
