Two locations. Two distinct communities. One extraordinary brief. This is a genuine chance to step into a people leadership role at the heart of one of the UK’s most compelling luxury businesses – shaping culture, building engagement and helping define what exceptional looks and feels like for the people who bring it to life every day.
This is a dedicated people leadership role spanning two central London locations, each with its own distinct culture and community, and each at a different point in its journey. Together they represent an extraordinary brief: to own the people function across two exceptional and evolving environments.
This is not an inherited, settled role. It is a genuinely formative one. A baseline engagement survey has just been completed and the results provide a clear platform to build from. The Group People Director has a strong strategic vision and is looking for someone who will both deliver on that vision and contribute meaningfully to its continued design.
You will lead the people function across both locations with a combined headcount of approximately 230 employees. You will execute the group people strategy on the ground, ensuring both locations experience it as a lived reality rather than a document, and develop two direct reports, shifting both from reactive case management into proactive, commercially minded business partnering. Building engagement and culture from a clear starting point will be central to the role, using the survey data already gathered to design and deliver meaningful work. The right candidate will also contribute to the design of the people strategy itself, bringing insight from the London environment back into the group. There is a potential role too in packaging the culture of both locations as the organisation expands internationally into new markets.

Director – People and Culture
- Type: Permanent
- Location: UKOxfordshire
Some organisations are good. A select few are extraordinary. This is an opportunity to join one of the most exciting and ambitious luxury businesses in the UK at a pivotal moment – where the foundations are firmly in place and the real work of building something truly exceptional is just beginning.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a people leadership role where the foundations are solid, the leadership is aligned and the real work of culture transformation is just beginning. The organisation is performing well and is now ready to build the habits, disciplines and environment that turn a good workplace into a genuinely exceptional one.
After a period of leadership change, the team now has settled and committed direction at the top, with an operational leader who understands the value of people work and will be a genuine partner to the right candidate. This is an opportunity to shape the next chapter from a position of stability and ambition.
You will lead a people team of circa 10, spanning people partnering, organisational development, talent acquisition, communications and engagement, and payroll and benefits. You will drive a multi-year culture transformation programme, embedding the right routines, disciplines and performance frameworks at every level of the organisation, not just at leadership. Above all, you will shift the people team from a reactive, compliance-led function to a proactive, commercially minded and culture-shaping force.

Debbie supported me in securing my first HRD role. Her observations and feedback were very insightful and assisted me greatly in navigating the recruitment process and learning about the company and environment I'll be stepping into. Totally dependable, unbiased and a good judge of character, I would highly recommend her to act on your behalf with prospective employers. I haven't worked with Debbie yet as the employer but wouldn't hesitate to do this if the need arises.
