Highly regarded by peers throughout the French legal market, it was reported by the industry press that Béatrix Laurent-Moulin was hired by ManpowerGroup France in 2011 as a response to the growing complexity of regulations faced by firms in the temporary work sector. As chief legal officer she has bolstered her reputation since the appointment by providing business-oriented legal advice and compliance implementation to accompany and protect the Group while it develops new HR initiatives for the benefit of its clients.

Before that she was an associate for three years at Dentons. Her first in-house role was at Schlumberger where she was employed between 1984 and 1989. Laurent-Moulin obtained her law degree in 1981 from King’s College London and also has an LLM in English and French law from the University of Paris I: Panthéon-Sorbonne.
