  • Proven track record in talent management, performance frameworks, reward design and change leadership.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, with experience advising senior executives and shaping strategic decision-making.
  • Strong analytical skills with experience using HR data and dashboards to inform business decisions (Excel and HRIS familiarity preferred).
  • Exceptional communication skills, able to present complex information clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Demonstrable ability to lead and develop teams, with a collaborative and coaching approach.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
