Grants for HR consulting and recruitment
In brief
An HR consulting or recruitment firm can access dedicated regional contracts and guide its client businesses toward Ministry of Labour schemes. This page lists the schemes currently validated for this trade, with their funder and maximum amount where available.
This sector covers human resources consulting and recruitment firms, as well as the schemes used to support their client businesses.
The Occitanie Region directly funds HR consulting or recruitment assignments through its RH-conseil and RH-recrutement Contracts, and its Pass RH.
The Ministry of Labour offers several schemes that can be mobilized on behalf of a client business: HR consulting grant, Operational Preparation for Employment (POE), Transitions collectives, and support for employer groups.

Frequently asked questions about HR consulting grants
What public grants exist for HR consulting and recruitment?
12 open schemes are listed for this trade on Capital OS, run by Regions and the Ministry of Labour.
The full list is presented above on this page, with the funder and the maximum amount of each grant where known.
Are these grants paid to the consulting firm or to the client business?
It depends on the scheme: Occitanie's RH Contracts fund the service directly, whereas several Ministry of Labour grants are paid to the client business, which then uses a service provider.
In both cases, the consulting firm can leverage these schemes to build its commercial offer.
Is my business eligible for these grants?
It depends on each scheme: some require a precise regional location, others are open nationally under certain conditions.
This page does not presume your business's eligibility; the personalized assessment checks it based on your actual criteria.
How do I apply for this type of grant?
The application is made directly with the relevant Region or the Ministry of Labour, depending on the scheme.
A personalized assessment first identifies the schemes genuinely relevant to your business, before you start the process.
