Health & Social Care businesses are, by definition, people businesses.
The best performing companies in the sector invariably have a strong People function, which sets the organisation’s cultural agenda and drives an inclusive talent acquisition, management and development strategy. This improves productivity, reduces employee turnover and consequently reduces costly agency spend.
The Chief People Officer increasingly has a seat on the executive committee, requiring modern HR leaders to blend the strategic and the tactical more than ever. CCO has extensive experience of appointing CPOs who are just as comfortable with investors and presenting to the Board as they are leading multi-disciplinary teams in reward, talent, shared services and HR analytics.
HR is a highly transferable skillset across multiple sectors. As such, the vast majority of CCO’s Chief People Officer shortlists combine top talent from the healthcare and life sciences markets, with innovative professionals from relevant, adjacent sectors.
Compass Carter Osborne successfully placed an HRD from outside of the healthcare sector, from a diverse background and with an extensive track-record leading HR functions for technology businesses.
Following the appointment of CEO, Andrea Kinkade and Chair, Mark Beadle, Compass Carter Osborne was mandated for a quartet of roles which were key catalysts to the delivery of the change agenda for Lifeways.
