how do you hire a manager in Romans-sur-Isère through a recruitment agency?
Romans-sur-Isère remains a stronghold of France's leather and shoe industry, and Muzzo hands your management, production and purchasing positions to the headhunters who make the most placements in those fields. You set the fee, from 5 to 30%, paid on hire; a departure within 3 months reopens the search at no cost.
one last question?
With Muzzo, you set the fee for each role, between 5 and 30%, and you only pay it once you hire. No deposit, no fixed fees. A buyer or production manager to convince to leave a neighboring workshop isn't hired like an already-open role: the fee reflects 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 Romans-sur-Isère: what you need to know
how do you choose a recruitment agency in Romans-sur-Isère?
In Romans-sur-Isère, picking an agency depends mostly on the role: a raw material buyer or production manager in the leather and shoe industry isn't hired the same way as a generic administrative role. A generalist agency often misses the best profiles already in post at a neighboring workshop.
Muzzo flips the problem: rather than hand Romans-sur-Isère to a generalist agency, we route your role to whichever of our 2,500 selected headhunters has succeeded best in that specific field, and you have just one contact to follow.
how much does a recruitment agency cost in Romans-sur-Isère?
An agency's fees depend on the role's seniority and billing model chosen: fixed fee, percentage of salary, or non-refundable deposit at search launch. For a management or purchasing role in Romans-sur-Isère, costs climb fast with flat-fee agencies.
At Muzzo, you set the fee yourself, from 5 to 30%, and it's due only on hire. No deposit, no cost if the search doesn't succeed.
why does Romans-sur-Isère remain a stronghold of leather and shoe manufacturing?
Romans-sur-Isère is presented by the Cité de la Chaussure as the international capital of shoe manufacturing for several decades before the industry moved heavily to emerging markets. From 2010 onward, Groupe Archer became the first to reopen a manufacturing workshop in the city, followed by new brands and artisan workshops.
The Cité de la Chaussure, opened in 2019 by Groupe Archer, now brings together a shop carrying more than 15 brands manufactured in the Romans-sur-Isère basin and visitor-accessible workshops. Romans Cuir, the industry's professional association created in partnership with Valence Romans Agglo, backs the arrival of new shoemakers in the area.
For an employer based in Romans-sur-Isère, that means a rising share of industrial jobs since 2012 (22.0% in 2023, versus 20.3% in 2012), rare in a French basin this size.
