Stage – direction juridique opérations EMEA ( H/F)

Club Med was created in 1950 through the vision of two men, Gilbert Trigano and Gérard Blitz, based on the idea that "The purpose of life is to be happy. The place to be happy is here. The time to be happy is now."

Together, they invented a new style of holiday: all-inclusive vacations in the world’s most beautiful destinations, offering the joy of living together and the opportunity to recharge through nature or sports. 

Since then, our mission has remained unchanged: every day, we create unforgettable moments of happiness for our guests in the most beautiful places around the world, with the Club Med Spirit. Today, Club Med is the world leader in all-inclusive vacations, with nearly 70 Premium and Exclusive Collection Resorts, as well as around twenty offices across five continents.  

Club Med offers more than 120 professions in its Resorts and more than 400 professions in its offices. We are nearly 30,000 G.Os (Gentil Organizers) and G.Es (Gentil Employees) from 110 different nationalities and cultures. Together, we bring the Club Med spirit to life through its five values: kindness, freedom, responsibility, multiculturalism, and a pioneering spirit. 

Regularly ranked among the “Favorite Companies of Employees in the Hospitality, Tourism and Leisure Industry” and the “Favorite Companies of Students and Young Graduates” (source: Capital, Epoka), we are committed to offering our G.As (Gentil Apprentices) and G.Ss (Gentil Interns) a truly enriching professional and human experience by sharing unique values in a fulfilling work environment. 

In short, completing an internship or apprenticeship at Club Med is not only about adding an experience to your résumé, but also about living a unique life experience within a one-of-a-kind company.
