Capri-Sun
Commercially-minded HR
Capri-Sun’s vision to be the best-tasting, sustainable no.1 kids’ drink in the world, is instantly recognisable in-store with its iconic pouch-shaped products. The brand has an enviable global reach and a continuing trajectory of innovation in ingredients, flavors and packaging to stay ahead with consumers.
The CEO wanted us to find a CHRO leader who would contribute to their ‘can-do,’ high growth mindset and selectively bring good people practices from their extensive and international career. Big company experience would only be advantageous if paired with good commercial judgement and speed of action in operationalising strategic plays supporting their growth ambition.
Getting the right fit
A list of international HR profiles was drawn up and interviews held with a few benchmarked candidates which proved a valuable step, sharpening the importance of the right cultural match between the candidate and the organisation.
The significance of team ethos at Capri-Sun led to the meaningful involvement of executive leaders in the short-list stage, with psychometrics to elicit a further layer of behavioural insight on the final two candidates.
A fast start
The successful appointee has lived and worked in diverse, international settings with different sector experience and operated in the No 1 HR spot in her last role. A strong influencer on the business agenda, she is adept at translating strategy into HR plans and is bringing the appropriate level of rigour to people practices.
