As a trusted strategic advisor, the CHRO will be responsible for aligning people strategy with commercial objectives, helping the organisation scale sustainably while preserving its entrepreneurial culture and strong performance ethos.
This is a rare opportunity to influence enterprise-wide transformation. The successful individual will lead the development and execution of a forward-looking human capital strategy focused on organisational capability, leadership effectiveness, workforce planning and value-driven growth. They will play a critical role in ensuring the organisation has the talent, structure and culture required to support its ambitious long-term objectives.
A key focus will be partnering with the CEO and Executive leadership team on strategic workforce and succession planning, executive talent management, leadership development and organisational design. The CHRO will be expected to strengthen the executive leadership pipeline, elevate people capability across the organisation and ensure the business is positioned to meet future growth demands through robust talent, succession and capability-building initiatives.
The organisation is at an exciting point in its evolution, creating a unique opportunity for an accomplished people leader to shape operating models, enhance organisational effectiveness and drive transformational change.

They will be instrumental in fostering a high-performance, inclusive and accountable culture that supports innovation, collaboration and customer-centricity.
The business is also investing heavily in technology, workforce analytics and AI-enabled ways of working. As such, the CHRO will be expected to lead the next phase of HR transformation, leveraging data, digital capabilities and emerging technologies to improve organisational effectiveness, employee experience and workforce decision-making. This includes evolving the HR operating model, enhancing the use of people analytics and ensuring HR is positioned as a strategic value creator across the enterprise.

They will possess a strong track record of partnering with CEOs and Boards, leading large-scale transformation agendas, building high-performing teams and delivering measurable business outcomes through people strategies.
Beyond technical HR expertise, we are seeking a commercially minded executive with the credibility and confidence to challenge constructively, influence at the highest levels and act as a trusted sounding board to senior leadership. The ideal candidate will combine strategic vision with operational excellence, balancing long-term transformation with practical execution. This indivdual must be comfortable operating in a strategic but also hands on, all encompassing role.
