William Grant & Sons: a home where Rare Characters thrive.
WGS value every employee for their rare character, distinctive skills, experience and perspectives. Every one of their colleagues has a role to play in helping them to achieve their growth ambitions.
The Opportunity
The Contribution & Development (C&D) Office is an independent entity, reporting to the Supervisory Board. It has been set up to help ensure the long-term success of William Grant & Sons as a family business.
The Company’s operating model, the William Grant Way (WGW) provides the framework for how the business works at its best. There are five key pillars – Organisation, People, Business Processes, Technology and Ways of Working. The WGW provides a well organised structure to allow activities to happen in a coordinated way to ensure the long-term success of the Company.
While the business owns and drives the WGW, the C&D Office monitors how well it’s set up to optimally achieve the Company’s objectives. This includes ensuring it is well understood and considering how effectively it is working, and where it can keep improving.
The C&D Office also supports the Supervisory Board in monitoring and accelerating the progress of people development and Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives.
We have a fantastic opportunity for an experienced People Lead to own all matters relating to the People and Organisation pillars in order to sustain and optimise their content and application, to ensure the most effective and efficient possible outcomes for the Company.
The People Lead will also work with the business in developing a high-performing organisation with an employee-oriented, open and collaborative culture that emphasises empowerment and promotes team working. The role will also ensure that the business is building the necessary capabilities to deliver the long-term growth to the highest performance standards.
