About Us

Transformations That Create Lasting Value

Born from the merger of Groupes Bernard Julhiet and SterWen in 2015, Julhiet Sterwen has grown into one of France's leading transformation consulting groups, generating over 120 million euros in revenue in 2025 with 750 talented consultants serving more than 2,000 clients. As a French entreprise à mission — a social-purpose company — we live by our 'Consulting for Good' commitment: every engagement must generate positive, sustainable impact. Our headquarters are in Neuilly-sur-Seine, and we operate in France, Switzerland, and Belgium, with a global partner network spanning 40+ countries through The Transformation League.

Who we are

A Cooperative of Multi-Specialists United by Conviction

We are a community of 750 consultants who believe that people are at the heart of every successful transformation. Our cooperative organizational model — unique in the consulting world and awarded a social innovation prize — is built on the principles of common sense, autonomy and trust. We hold the #1 rank in France for employee engagement (HappyIndex®AtWork) and for CSR practices (WeImpact®). Our employees represent more than 15 nationalities, and we are proud of a Gender Equality Index score of 84/100. At Julhiet Sterwen, pride, satisfaction and meaning are not perks — they are our standard.

What we do

Business, People, Tech & Environment — All At Once

We advise and support organizations facing the full spectrum of transitions: economic, digital, ecological and social. Our expertise covers strategy, change management, organizational agility, innovation, operational excellence, customer experience, HR and finance function transformation, IT systems, data governance, risk & compliance, and environmental sustainability. With the integration of (RE)SET, we now cover all three pillars of corporate transformation — business, people and environment — from strategy through to execution. We don't just diagnose problems; we act alongside our clients to resolve them.

Our Purpose

Consulting for Good

Our mission is to ensure that transformations create sustainable value, working with and respecting all stakeholders, because we firmly believe in people. As an entreprise à mission since 2022, we have formalized four commitments: making people the overriding focus, thinking and encouraging sustainable growth, supporting research and the open sharing of its results, and reducing our own carbon footprint while helping clients reduce theirs.

Our Values

The DNA of JuSt Spirit

Sharing and commitment are our anchors, with excellence as our standard. We build on common sense, autonomy and trust — within our teams and with our clients. We prize honesty, a positive mindset, and the courage to challenge ideas and seek new perspectives. Cooperation is not a process for us; it is how we fundamentally work. And we believe that energy — individual and collective — is the true driver of any transformation.

Why working with us

The Power of Symbiotic Expertise

We are the only consulting firm in France to combine strategy, people, tech and environmental expertise within a single cooperative model. We bring the right mix of multi-specialist consultants to every challenge — not generalists, not narrow specialists — but a symbiosis of the two. Our 'Consulting for Good' commitment means our clients benefit not only from high-quality advice, but from a partner that takes responsibility for the long-term impact of every engagement. Recognized by Grand Prix Syntec Conseil, Happy@Work #1, and WeImpact #1, our model is proven — externally and internally.

Sustainability

Sustainable Transitions as a Core Business

As a mission-driven company (entreprise à mission) since 2022, sustainability is embedded in everything we do. We publish an annual mission report. Through our integration of (RE)SET — specialists in resource efficiency and circular/regenerative economy — we now offer clients end-to-end support on environmental strategy: CSR and sustainable development strategies, transition plans, CSRD regulatory compliance, supply chain transformation, and responsible governance. We are a UN Global Compact participant and hold the #1 rank in France for CSR practices on ChooseMyCompany's WeImpact® index.

Community & Impact

Impact Beyond the Boardroom

Julhiet Sterwen is an active participant in the UN Global Compact and co-founded The Transformation League, an international alliance of independent consulting firms committed to sharing best practices and creating positive change across borders. Our Consulting for Good ethos extends to our community involvement, including partnerships with public authorities, ESG initiatives, and support for organizations driving inclusive and sustainable growth.

Inclusion & Diversity

Diversity as a Source of Strength

We strive to promote diversity in every form. Our teams represent more than 15 nationalities. We have achieved a French Gender Equality Index score of 84/100 and have a dedicated working group to further improve our practices. We support colleagues with disabilities through awareness programs and are committed to equitable career development for all, regardless of background or pace of advancement.

Awards & Accreditations

Recognition That Reflects Our Commitments

#1 on HappyIndex®AtWork France 2024 (500–999 employees category) for the second consecutive year. #1 on WeImpact® France for best CSR practices (2024). Grand Prix Syntec Conseil winner. Prix du Projet RH d'envergure. Social Innovation Prize for our organizational model.
