We support our clients in over 30 countries and have successfully managed more than 600 contracts since 2022. Aterim was built on a clear conviction: to foster a more human, transparent, and flexible professional landscape. It is in this dynamic of growth that we chose to set up in Manosque, with the desire to establish a long-term presence in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. Our goal is to work closely with local businesses, structures and talent in order to offer a tailored local support.

This strong positioning directly addresses the local needs for flexibility and dedicated human support among the local stakeholders.
In a fast changing professional environment, organisations and businesses are increasingly seeking solutions that combine flexibility and legal security. Whether it involves temporarily scaling a team, managing a specific project or supporting international mobility, the administrative, social and tax challenges can quickly become complex. We provide a comprehensive solution by taking care of the entire contractual and regulatory framework.

We provide comprehensive support, including headhunting, payroll management, insurance, and specialised expertise in expatriation and relocation. To simplify daily operations for our clients, we also manage business travel, including bookings and expenses management. Through these solutions, we offer all contract types ensuring total flexibility. This is further complemented by a secure hosting solution for independent professionals.

Since Aterim creation in 2019, we have continued to grow while remaining true to our core values: providing employment solutions that are more human, more transparent and better suited to on-the-ground realities. Our establishment in Manosque demonstrates a clear ambition: to contribute, at our level, to local initiatives promoting employment and economic development.
Mr Borghini, regional councillor representing Mr Muselier, president of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, attented the event and praised our initiative and highlighted the importance of synergies between public and private stakeholders. "As you mentioned, HR professions in the broadest sense are evolving. And your chosen niche, supporting SMEs, very small businesses, town halls and other organisations, it's interesting", referring to Aterim's implementation strategy and its alignment with the region's needs, he furthered analysed our model’s relevance in the market: "Your DNA, being ambitious, being realistic, with your feet on the ground, shows that your presence here is no accident", Mr Borghini concluded by reminding the audience that economic success is above all a collective and deeply humanistic endeavour: "To distribute wealth, you have to create it. And to create wealth, you need men and women. And you need that human aspect".
Through this regional launch, we are beginning a new chapter in our development alongside local stakeholders, based on a spirit of cooperation, trust and long-term value creation.
