Our Amundi Finance and Solidarity fund aims to invest in unlisted companies providing solutions to the main social and environmental challenges. We are very happy to support GoJob, which is part of one of our 5 investment themes: job creation and in particular the employability of a low-skilled public. We are fully in line with its values: an innovative company at the service of social impact, which allows people who are far from employment to have access to temporary assignments, as well as to appropriate training thanks to a total digitization of the sector.

Presse release
This ambitious fundraising aims to accelerate and advance Gojob's technology and further its commitment to employment for all.
Gojob is now the global leader in digital staffing.

This unique model enables Gojob to combine commercial performance with operational efficiencies. More than 1,000 customers in the US and France leverage Gojob's technology to recruit better, faster and at scale.
With this new fundraising, Gojob will accelerate its R&D investments as well as the growth of the US and French markets. Gojob will also enrich its portfolio of services - particularly training and financial products - for its 500,000 temporary workers in order to better support them throughout their professional careers.
Since 2019, we have been supporting Gojob in its development and are delighted to renew our support by accompanying them towards this new change of scale. Thanks to the digital tool, Gojob offers "tailor-made" support to vulnerable people reintegrating into the labor market, and thus puts technology at the service of people: it is this alliance of technical performance and social impact that the Banque des Territoires seeks as an investor, in the service of more attractive and more inclusive territories, by supporting access to employment and training in the best conditions and throughout life.
Recruitment is the major challenge of the moment and for the years to come… we have to rethink our models! Gojob offers a personalized, simple and effective solution to give everyone a chance, starting with temporary staffing. Sourcing, matching, qualification, training, onboarding, contracting, payroll… technology at the service of performance and impact is everywhere with us.
With its 1,000 customers and 500,000 Gojobbers, Gojob continues to accelerate its development in France and the US, aiming to achieve more than 60% growth by the end of this year and profitability by 2023.

About Alter Equity3P II,

It was also the first non-listed fund management company to impose as a condition for its investment the commitment to a rigorous CSR approach, requiring in particular to carry out a carbon assessment and to open up the capital to all employees. www.alter-equity.com
