Chief People Officer

Our client required a new Chief People Officer for their PE-backed business that was entering a new growth phase.

Overwhelmingly positive experience, all partners are fantastic. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Savannah again; couldn’t be happier.

CEO
Diagnose
Rapid growth

A UK-based, nationally recognised provider of integrated facilities and environmental services sought to appoint a Chief People Officer (CPO) to its leadership team following a period of rapid, acquisition-driven growth. The role required a leader capable of driving cultural integration, guiding the business through refinancing and restructuring, and building a high-performing HR function and infrastructure.

Design
Targeted insights

Leveraging our proprietary MapX tool for targeted desk research, combined with our deep understanding of the CPO market and extensive CEO network, we were able to quickly connect the CEO with exceptional
individuals whose insights helped shape his vision and refine his understanding of what “good” should look and feel like.

Deliver
Strategic appointment

We appointed a proven CPO with the strategic vision, hands-on capability, and stakeholder acumen to lead complex HR integrations, align operations with business goals, and deliver immediate impact, providing stability through refinancing and preparing the organisation for its next chapter.
