People & Org Lead

We’re proud to be partnering with a globally recognised, family-owned business to recruit a high-impact People & Org Lead.

This is a strategic role focused on designing and implementing organisational structures that enable business transformation, drive efficiency, and support our client’s global ambitions.

You will work closely with senior leaders, HR, and transformation teams to ensure our organisation is fit for purpose and future-ready.

As a trusted partner, you will:

• Act as a visible custodian of the pillars of the Operating Model – ensuring they are consistently applied across the business and continually evolve and improve.
• Monitor alignment to these principles while empowering leaders to own day-to-day accountability.
• Shape and review organisational changes, helping teams design effective structures that cut across silos, geographies, and functions.
• Provide constructive challenge and support to ensure good governance and rigorous debate around change – balancing business needs with long-term objectives.
• Surface system-wide risks and opportunities, connecting the dots across functions to reduce complexity and improve performance.

We’re looking for someone who brings both strategic insight and hands-on credibility – someone who can partner, influence, and make things happen.

You’ll have:

• Significant experience in organisation design, ideally in a complex or global business environment.
• A systems-thinking mindset, with the ability to see the big picture, connect interdependencies, and keep people at the centre of transformation.
• Demonstrated success influencing stakeholders and driving adoption of new ways of working.
• A strong process orientation, with experience of identifying inefficiencies and driving improvements through process design, simplification, and optimisation.
• High emotional intelligence, cultural sensitivity, and the ability to build trust and navigate ambiguity.
• A collaborative, resilient, and solutions-focussed approach.

We welcome candidates from diverse Organisation Design, HR, or operational leadership backgrounds. This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a truly exceptional business – and help make its ambition real through its people and structure.
