The key goal of our relations with educational Institutions is to attract new talent while adapting recruitments to the prevailing economic environment and the diversity of activities and professions of the PPR group.

PPR is very conscious of its image as an employer and wishes to position itself as a preferred employer. The group and its branches have therefore chosen targeted institutions (business schools, universities,…) with which specific actions and partnerships have been set up: participation to forums, conferences on the group and the leading professions among the brands, resume-writing workshops to support students in their search for an apprentice position or a permanent job.

PPR has also been a partner of ESSEC for some years within the program « Joining a business school, why not me? ». This setup is to help young people from modest origins and with high potential to access high quality education by developing their social capital and their self-confidence. PPR’s entities (headquarters or outlets) open their doors every year to junior college students enrolled in this program to allow them to become familiar with their environment and professions, thus helping these students to prepare their choice for a future career path.

PPR is also the proud sponsor of the HEC luxury track that was launched in 2010.
