Pangea Talent

Pangea Talent is a boutique executive search firm headquartered in Paris specialising in placing C-level and senior leadership talent across Asia. The company was founded by Indo-French entrepreneurs bringing expertise spanning India, Japan, Singapore and Southeast Asia, combining executive search experience with international trade management for France across these regions. The company's cross-continental experience provides unparalleled insight into regional business dynamics, cultural nuances and leadership excellence.

Pangea Talent offers recruitment of bilingual French/English candidates for foreign companies based in France, bringing international recruitment best practices to local hiring. The company welcomes candidates in their native languages where staff speak Hindi or Japanese. The firm also recruits local executives for European scale-ups and SMEs expanding into Asia, offering a single point of contact across all countries for seamless recruitment experience. Unlike multi-country agencies, Pangea Talent's unified approach ensures consistency and deep understanding of client needs.

Founders Ayesha and Jerome Desquiens bring 10+ years of global executive search experience. Ayesha delivered C-level and regional leadership hires across Asia and Europe, previously partnered with brands including L'Oréal, Adidas, Amazon, Microsoft and Netflix, and has lived and recruited across India, Japan, Singapore and France. Jerome brings 20+ years of international trade experience, having opened new markets for French companies and served as guest lecturer in intercultural management at leading business schools.
