French term or phrase: GAEC
Appears in part of a document describing career development opportunities for HR Directors in a large multi-national gas company (DRH = HR director):

"évoluer comme DRH d’entités fonctionnelle ou opérationnelles RH de + grosse taille au sein du groupe (ce qui suppose une « GAEC » de la filière RH et un mode de gestion de la mobilité)"

The only meaning of GAEC I can find is "groupement agricole d'exploitation en commun" which doesn't seem to have anything to do with the HR field! Thanks for any light you can shed on this!

analogy


Explanation:
Looks to me as if they are using the agricultural GAEC as an analogy (I take it the quotes are theirs, not yours), meaning it is suggested they operate their HR relations function across different entities like a consortium.

It would seem more natural if the company concerned were one in the agrifoods industry rather than a gas company, however ...
