Plusone

PlusOne is a strategic recruitment partner dedicated to serving start-ups, scale-ups, PMEs and international enterprises across Belgium and beyond. Since 2011, the company has built deep expertise in identifying and placing exceptional talent, particularly scientists, engineers, managers and C-level executives. PlusOne's core offering centres on executive search and strategic recruitment, where each mandate is treated as a critical business decision rather than a simple vacancy to fill. The company has successfully accompanied over 150 companies of all sizes, maintaining an impressive 85% retention rate 12 months after placement, demonstrating the durability and quality of their placements.

PlusOne specialises exclusively in four interconnected sectors: biotech, medtech, hightech and greentech. These complex, innovation-driven environments demand sophisticated understanding of technical, scientific and human dynamics, which PlusOne has mastered over fifteen years of focused practice. The company recruits across all levels, from junior product managers and R&D engineers through to senior C-suite positions including CEOs, CTOs, CFOs and CSOs. Their approach combines rigorous contextual analysis, proven evaluation methodologies such as Lumina assessments, and access to a carefully cultivated network of over 25,000 qualified profiles activated daily.

Based in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, PlusOne serves clients throughout Belgium and internationally. The company differentiates itself through personalised, demanding and long-term oriented service that goes beyond simple candidate placement. Rather than accepting a job brief at face value, PlusOne analyses organisational context, strategic challenges and company culture to identify talent genuinely aligned with both technical requirements and organisational values. This thorough, strategic approach has earned consistent client testimonials praising their market knowledge, flexibility, transparency and professional effectiveness.
