how do you hire in Tarbes through a recruitment agency?

In Tarbes, Muzzo hands your administration, healthcare and manufacturing roles to the headhunters with the most placements in that specific field. 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 healthcare manager or production manager isn't hired like a standard admin role: 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.

01

administration and healthcare already hold half the market

the Tarbes area has the highest share of hard-to-fill roles in the department

Of the 4,390 recruitment projects planned for 2026 in the Tarbes area, 53% are rated difficult by employers, more than in Lourdes or Lannemezan: a nurse or a production technician already has approaches.

the historic arms manufacturing industry hires quietly

KNDS Ammo France, based on chemin des Poudrières on the former arsenal site, employs 100 to 199 people and seeks production profiles that standard job ads struggle to reach.

the roles

the roles hiring the most in Tarbes

Administration, healthcare and the arms manufacturing industry: each role goes to a headhunter who knows that field in Tarbes.

  1. leadership for public administration and the arms industry

    One job in two in Tarbes is in public administration, education or healthcare. Public facility director, finance and admin director, but also site leadership for the industry based on chemin des Poudrières, on the former arsenal site.

  2. nursing leadership at Tarbes-Lourdes Hospital Centre

    Healthcare manager, specialist nurse, department manager: Tarbes-Lourdes Hospital Centre has between 2,000 and 4,999 employees and competes directly with private clinics in the area for these profiles.

  3. human resources for major public employers

    HR manager, payroll manager, admin manager: with close to one job in two in administration, education or healthcare, these functions run headcounts few private companies in the area can match.

  4. maintenance and methods at the historic arms manufacturing site

    Methods technician, maintenance manager, quality engineer: KNDS Ammo France manufactures ammunition on chemin des Poudrières, on the former Tarbes arsenal site, with 100 to 199 employees.

  5. finance and financial control between public and industry

    Financial controller, accounting manager, treasurer: these roles cover budgets for a public facility as much as for an industrial site such as KNDS Ammo France.

  6. sales and customer relations for local manufacturers

hiring in Tarbes: what you need to know

how do you choose a recruitment agency in Tarbes?

In Tarbes, choosing an agency depends on the sector: admin and healthcare roles aren't hired like industrial positions. A generalist agency often misses candidates already employed in one of the area's large public facilities.

Muzzo flips the problem: instead of handling Tarbes with a generalist, we route your role to whichever of our 2,500 selected headhunters succeeds best in that specific field, and you have just one contact to track.

how much does a recruitment agency cost in Tarbes?

An agency's price depends on the role level and billing model chosen: fixed fee, salary percentage, or non-refundable deposit at search launch.

At Muzzo, you set the fee yourself, from 5 to 30%, and it's only due on hire. No deposit, no fees if the search doesn't succeed.

why do administration and healthcare weigh so heavily in Tarbes?

Public administration, education, healthcare and social services account for 49.6% of jobs in Tarbes in 2023, up from 48.2% in 2012: a share that continues to grow. Tarbes-Lourdes Hospital Centre, employing 2,000 to 4,999, is one of the major employers.

For a private employer in Tarbes, this means direct competition with public structures hiring year-round for healthcare, management and admin profiles.

an industrial base remains in place in Tarbes

Tarbes retains an industrial cluster inherited from its former arsenal: KNDS Ammo France manufactures munitions there on Chemin des Poudrières, in a facility employing 100 to 199.

This industrial base, more discreet than the aircraft maintenance hub at Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport (outside the city), hires manufacturing, methods and quality profiles hard to replace quickly.

which profiles are most sought-after in Tarbes?

In the Tarbes employment area, 4,390 hiring plans are forecast for 2026, 53% rated difficult to fill by employers: the highest rate among the 3 Hautes-Pyrénées employment areas.

At the department level, employers are looking above all for specialized educators, care workers and catering and home support profiles: admin, healthcare and social fields consistent with the sector's weight in Tarbes.

how do our headhunters hire in Tarbes?

In Tarbes, the headhunter first checks a role's real scope: budget managed, team size, reporting line, whether it's a public facility or industrial firm.

Average time, 26 days from brief to signature, spans Tarbes across all fields. A replacement guarantee applies if the hire leaves within 3 months.
