Tripacor

Tripacor is a French recruitment cabinet 100 per cent specialised in HVAC (climatique), plumbing, heating and cooling (CVC, fluides et thermique). The company is the partner of choice for recruitment in these sectors, finding technicians and managers who drive the business: refrigeration engineers (frigoristes), project managers, cost estimators, site managers and team leaders. Tripacor's core differentiation stems from deep industry knowledge and an exclusive candidate network.

The company brings ground-level knowledge of the trades, understanding technical competencies that matter such as refrigerant fluids, certification requirements, direct expansion systems and thermal calculations. This enables precise qualification of technical skills. Tripacor has built a proprietary candidate pool of over 1,000 technicians and managers in HVAC, refrigeration and plumbing, cultivated over several years. This network means clients win weeks of sourcing time without depending on saturated job boards. The firm commits to tight timeframes on the majority of missions, typically delivering shortlists of 3 to 5 qualified candidates within 2 to 3 weeks.

The company offers four service tiers: permanent CDI recruitment across all technical and managerial HVAC and plumbing positions; executive search for positions 60,000 euros and above in technical direction, operations responsibility and business unit direction; HR strategy consulting supporting HVAC companies on employer branding and technician retention; and annual salary surveys benchmarking compensation by trade, seniority and region. Founded by Julien Mercier and Farah Laaroussi, Tripacor covers 14 distinct trades across the sector.
