Gentis, a specialist in recruitment and consulting for businesses, has recently opened an office in Belval (Luxembourg). Established internationally since 2015, Gentis stands out with its inclusive approach to recruitment. Believing that diversity enhances team performance, the firm aims to raise awareness and encourage companies to look beyond appearance, orientation, or origin in order to seize the best recruitment opportunities and discover qualified and unique talent.



The art of connecting talent with the right opportunities


Founded in Brussels in 2011, Gentis aims to leverage its international presence and 13 years of experience to help Luxembourg companies access its pool of talent. Specialising in the sectors of IT, Engineering, and Finance, the company places great importance on fostering strong and lasting relationships with its candidates. With its local presence and a team of experts in the Luxembourg market, Gentis consultants gain deep insights into the strengths, personalities, and career goals of applicants. This enables them to select the right talents for companies while also matching the right companies with the right talents for successful collaboration.

More than a recruitment agency – a genuine ally for businesses


For Gentis, recruitment goes beyond just finding candidates. The firm supports companies even before the recruitment process, offering consulting and training services. The Gentis team helps develop their clients' employer brand to attract the right talent. "Our role is help match talent with the company's needs," explains Cindy Jax, Country Director of Gentis Luxembourg. "In this regard, it's crucial to understand the client, their challenges, and their company culture." Gentis has taken it a step further by creating its recruitment solution called Wiggli, where employers have their own company page, increasing visibility to candidates. This page provides access to numerous details, including values, company culture, employee introduction videos, job offers, and more.



A decidedly inclusive approach


Stéphanie Reniers, co-founder and CEO of Gentis, regularly speaks out on LinkedIn about her fight against discrimination in hiring. With Gentis, the ambition is to open companies up to the issues of diversity and inclusion. According to Stéphanie Reniers, in 2024, too many candidates are still excluded from the recruitment process due to their appearance, origin, or any other uniqueness. These candidates often possess the skills and profiles necessary to thrive and perform in their roles.


For our co-founder, it goes beyond just matching candidates with companies. The diversity of profiles is a great asset for the collective. A team made up of employees from various backgrounds is more innovative, creative, and effective. This is confirmed by a publication from the International Labour Organization, “Arguments for Change”, which shows that leaders who implement strong inclusion policies are 60% more likely to see an increase in their profits.



Consultants specialising in the Luxembourg market


Gentis aims to position itself as a leading player in Luxembourg. With a team currently comprising five members, the office supports local businesses in their search for profiles in the IT, Finance, and Engineering sectors. The firm plans to expand quickly to include around twenty consultants specialising in recruitment, consulting, and supporting employers in other local industries facing recruitment challenges. "Our goal, compared to other players in the market, is to build a small team of the right people to ensure high-quality, flexible service, all while leveraging the strength of a larger group to deliver results," concludes Cindy Jax.
