Human resources philosophy

The Human Resources department supports the Maison’s development. Its aim is to create an environment in which the Maison and its employees can thrive.

Each and every employee plays a key role in the Maison’s development. Ensuring employee well-being and development on a daily basis is one of Human Resource’s key functions.

Safeguarding skills

Van Cleef & Arpels owes its reputation of excellence in its ability to safeguard its savoir-faire, knowledge and processes. The stakes are high. While safeguarding skills is important, passing them on is critical!  

For Van Cleef & Arpels, the transmission of skills is also a way of sharing art and culture. That is why the Maison participates and puts on exhibitions in France (and overseas) in its stores and in partnership with international museums.  

ESSEC Chair

The Maison’s unique savoir-faire is a major asset and must be preserved and valued. With this in mind, Van Cleef & Arpels has joined forces with ESSEC and two other luxury Maisons to create and support the Savoir-Faire Management Chair. Its role is to provide training in its unique savoir-faire for future managers, investors, artisans and entrepreneurs. For the Maison, the Chair represents a place of teaching, research and dialog between students and those in the workforce.  

Digitalization

Moving with the times combined with constant development has always been one of Van Cleef & Arpels’ strengths both for its customers and its employees. The aim of the Human Resources department is to help employees adapt to new working practices and environments. The Human Resources department ensures this through its real-time survey system. In this way, the Maison can adapt to teams’ needs, answer their questions and provide them with important information. Digital technology helps encourage proximity, discussion and dialog.
