Nathalie Hautphenne
Executive Search Partner & Senior Recruitment Expert
Who am I?
As a Belgian, born in Brussels and raised in Flanders, I benefited from a bilingual upbringing in French and Dutch, an opportunity that I have also passed on to my two children.
Being hypersensitive, I chose to make my sensitivity my profession by helping others through my empathy and my deep understanding of their needs.
Apart from that, I’m passionate about dance, exploring the bewitching rhythms of salsa, bachata and kizomba, which allow me to express myself fully and free myself. Interior design is another of my passions, allowing me to give free rein to my creativity and find a relaxing balance.
My experience in recruitment
Since 1999, I have been passionately recruiting all kinds of profiles, mainly in Brussels and the surrounding area. Accompanying candidates in their careers is a source of gratification for me. My role as a recruiter is crucial in helping companies find the ideal candidate who shares their values, thanks to my expertise and the extensive professional network I’ve built up over the years.

There are a lot of recruiters on the market, but with Nathalie it’s different. She doesn’t act as a recruiter, but as a partner who offers the right solutions at the right time. She’s more a member of the company than an outside partner. What’s more, she’s precise, proactive, positive and very professional. Well done Nathalie!

What I like about Profile Group?
What I like about Profile Group is the human side of management, the autonomy and management from A to Z of a recruitment process. Only the result and the quality count and that suits me very well because work is based on efficiency. . The client has a single contact person, which allows them to get to know the corporate culture well and establish a long-term relationship of trust. It is also reassuring for the candidate to know that the consultant knows the company well and can therefore answer many practical questions.
