The insurance brokerage Candide group (formerly Delta Assurances) has announced the recruitment of 150 employees over the next two years to support its growth. Currently, Candide group has a turnover of €30 million and employs 350 people. It now aims to achieve a turnover of €43 million and therefore plans to hire 150 new employees. The group, which positions itself as a player in insurance and technological services for companies, has five subsidiaries, not all of which are specialised in insurance: Delta assurances, Çaassure, baloo, kwote and QuickMS. The group is independent and 100% owned by the Lecat family. It will thus rely on its own funds, its banking partners and BPI France to carry out its new operations.
