- Build scalable talent, leadership, and performance frameworks.
- Lead workforce planning, people analytics, and HR transformation initiatives.
- Drive M&A integration, change management, and organisational effectiveness programmes.
- Establish robust governance, compliance, and investor-ready HR processes across a multi-site operation.
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience as a CHRO, HR Director, Chief People Officer, or equivalent executive leader.
- Strong background in distribution, logistics, manufacturing, wholesale, supply chain, or other operationally intensive sectors.
- Track record of supporting businesses through rapid growth, transformation, private equity investment, or exit events.
- Experience leading HR across multi-site organisations and managing M&A integrations.
- Commercially astute, data-driven, and comfortable operating in fast-paced, evolving environments.
