November 26, 2026 – London – The Adecco Group (SIX: ADEN), the leading talent and technology advisory company, will unveil how it creates an agility advantage for organizations, human and digital workers in the face of ongoing technology and demographic shifts. At its Capital Markets Day in London the Group will outline its value creation path, shaping the future of work in the intelligent era.

Denis Machuel, CEO, the Adecco Group, said: “We have proven our ability to execute and gain share. We are strongly positioned to build on our market-leading positions, with Adecco, Akkodis and LHH, and continue our value creation path in the intelligent era. 

“Today we set out our agility advantage value creation path - delivered through a run-and-change model. To strengthen run, we will build on our strong execution track record to drive further profitable growth and share gains. To accelerate change, we will further scale our digital platform, be a pioneer in generative and agentic AI; and shape the future of hybrid human and digital workforces with our joint venture, r.Potential. 

“Our financial commitments are reconfirmed, with a financial strategy focused on maximizing EBITA and deleveraging.”

The Adecco Group’s agility advantage is built around delivering customer value with innovative end-to-end talent and technology solutions that enable strategic workforce management and agility. The Group will outline its technology and AI roadmap showing how superior client and candidate experience at scale is enabled by its growing digital platform - powered by data, analytics and AI. Today, more than ten billion euros of revenues are supported by the platform. 

Management will outline its pioneering approach to human-centric AI and agentic AI across its business lines. Agentic AI in the Adecco business will be scaled to cover more than 50 percent of revenues by the end of 2026. As well as agentic transformation, the Group leverages AI for career transition, leadership development and coaching with comprehensive training offerings from LHH and its Ezra and General Assembly brands. Further, Akkodis is strongly positioned to support digitalisation and sustainability with its leading-edge portfolio of AI capabilities branded as Akkodis Intelligence.

Leadership in human-centric AI will be strongly supported by the Adecco Group’s joint venture r.Potential which has been established to help enterprises with strategic workforce management of hybrid digital and human workforces. Leveraging billions of data points, its solution will provide the intelligence to help enterprises create measurable business impact, strategically design and successfully run hybrid workforces. It will enable organizations to measure how effectively they convert combined human and digital capacity into productivity, adaptability and innovation at speed. In turn, r.Potential will unlock the substantial opportunity from workforce reconfiguration for the Adecco Group. 

The agility advantage approach translates into tangible financial outcomes including continued share gains, maintaining an EBITA margin corridor of 3-6 percent through the cycle, and achieving around 6 percent in a supportive economic environment. The Group is committed to delivering a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.5x or below by the end of 2027.
