The Paris region, as far as the Oise, is a huge pool of jobs and more than ever less than two years from the organization of the 2024 Olympic Games. All the major sectors are in demand.
Here are five examples.
Amusement parks are buzzing
Should we see a new effect of the famous magic potion of the Gauls?
Parc Astérix, which reopens on April 8 in the Oise, has just launched its recruitment campaign for seasonal workers for the 2023 season, with twice as many vacancies this year as in previous ones.
The park will need 2,000 people, mainly in hotels, restaurants, reception, sales, management, maintenance, security and shows.
"After a very good year in 2022 and with a view to the start of the season in the spring of 2023, Parc Astérix wishes to increase recruitment levels, in order to welcome visitors in the best conditions", emphasizes Fathia Gueucier, in charge of organization of operations.
It is more on soft skills than their professional qualifications that candidates will be assessed.
All the details are available online at parcasterix-recrute.talent-soft.com.
As for Disneyland Paris (Seine-et-Marne), it is planned to enroll 8,200 people during the year.
"This concerns all sectors, with a focus on the catering and flow businesses", specifies the vice-president of human resources of the group which operates the first tourist destination in Europe.
The offers relate to the 500 professions in parks, shops, hotels and restaurants.
Now his team recruits even without seeing a CV.
“Any type of profile, from beginner to more experienced, is sought after, specifies Guillaume Da Cunha.
We are looking for a quality of service more than a diploma.
The offers are all available on the job site.disneycareers.com.
Early childhood or municipal police in Paris
It is one of the main job providers in the capital, if not the main one.
In 2023, as in previous years, the City of Paris will hire between 2,500 and 3,000 people to complete its workforce in more than 300 different professions.
It's even a little more than usual, "because the age pyramid means that we are going to have more retirements", notes Antoine Guillou, deputy mayor of Paris in charge of human resources.
The early childhood sector is the one where the needs are the greatest.
“We hope to recruit 500 people in 2023, specifies the elected official.
It is a sector in high tension and we continue to open structures.
In this context, we recruit on the three levels of hierarchy, A, B and C. In particular childcare auxiliaries (B), childcare agents (CAP) and educators young children.

In second place, cleanliness.
The needs of the municipality are estimated at 300 people, mainly garbage collectors to ensure the collection of waste in the streets.
Launched at the end of 2021 by Anne Hidalgo (PS), the Paris municipal police (PM) must still grow before the crucial meeting of the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. With a workforce of more than 550 agents at the end of 2022, the PM wants to continue its development.
“We would like to recruit 300 or even 400 additional people this year,” hopes the deputy.
The opportunity of the Olympics
"In terms of employment, the Games are tomorrow," says Daniel Weizmann, president of Medef Île-de-France.
Paris 2024 is approaching and the needs are colossal: 150,000 jobs will be generated before and during the competition, the majority of which will be filled in businesses in the Ile-de-France region.
12,000 jobs in construction, 62,000 in tourism… The figures are all the more impressive as certain sectors remain in tension.
"There is concern in catering (
18,000 jobs to be filled
) and for security professions (
22,000
)", he underlines.

Nevertheless, the Medef wants to be optimistic.
"The whatever the cost is over, we will attract workers, it is to be hoped", estimates Daniel Weizmann.
Especially since, according to estimates by the employers' organization, “the economic benefits will be 11 billion euros.
This is a real challenge for businesses in Île-de-France”.
2,500 bus drivers at RATP
Last year, the RATP bus department welcomed 1,500 new drivers.
Change of gear in 2023. This year, the staffing needs of the RDS (surface network) will require the recruitment of 2,500 additional drivers... That is more than half of the approximately 4,500 hires - in 250 different professions - scheduled by the Régie over the next twelve months.
To attract a maximum of potential future machinists, the management has simplified its recruitment process and opens up positions to several types of candidates: drivers who already hold a D license (heavy goods vehicles), who will undergo training for one to two weeks in bus center in the event of hiring;
young people aged at least 21, holders of a B permit, who receive eight weeks' (paid) training before joining the company, and young people with no training who can be recruited from the age of 18 in apprenticeship and work-study contract at the CFA for urban mobility professions in Noisiel (Seine-et-Marne).
“Work-study students constitute a pool of pre-recruitment”, specifies the RATP.
It will offer them 670 contracts this year, against 600 last year.
SNCF is looking for RER drivers
Public transport operators are also actively looking for new train and RER drivers.
This also involves anticipating the increase in needs as the 2024 Olympic meeting approaches, but also preparing for the expansion of the network and the opening of new lines such as the extension of the RER E, whose first section (from Saint-Lazare to Nanterre) will open in principle in 2024.
Transilien SNCF, which manages this RER (but also the C and D, as well as the northern branch of line B) has therefore planned a much larger volume of recruitment of new train drivers than in the past.
They should be 400 this year, twice as many as in 2022. "This concerns all driving positions, tram-trains, TER or RER", we specify to Transilien, emphasizing that the paid training that follows hiring varies greatly depending on the type of rolling stock piloted.
RER driver positions are available to candidates with a diploma ranging from CAP to Bac + 3. Job offers are listed on the Transilien website or on that of Île-de-France Mobilités.
