HR Director

The situation:
A very early stage Private Equity backed venture aimed at digitalising a traditional print-based industry required an interim HR Director to secure their first UK-based acquisition.  The HR deliverables included: 

• Handling all of the people-related due diligence
• Managing the transition into the new entity
• Building an HR platform to integrate future global acquisition activities based on a new organisational model.

The solution:
Alium provided a highly experienced senior HR professional with international experience in Private Equity. They operated as a core member of the small Executive team, contributing to organisational strategy and design, through to operational, hands-on management of all transaction-related HR matters.  Having secured three acquisitions, the role was backfilled by a less senior, more tactical operator to role out the HR infrastructure.
