Louise has 12 years in the search industry and has specialised in HR since 2005

Louise focuses on long term, mutually beneficial relationships with her clients and has a reputation for high levels of communication and attention to detail. She works with a variety of clients across all sectors and all areas of HR expertise including Reward, OD and Talent. Clients have included Unilever, O2, Skype, BP, Lloyds Banking Group and RSA Insurance.

Louise brings a unique background to her work with Redgrave Partners. She began her career with Saatchi and Saatchi Plc where she specialised in media planning for a number of blue chip clients. She also ran her own training consultancy for a number of years and taught English and coached rowing in the private school sector.

Prior to joining Redgrave in September 2011, she was an Executive Search Consultant for one of the UK’s leading specialist HR search firms, Strategi.

With a BA in English from London University, Louise lives in Henley on Thames and spends free time road cycling and taking trips on the Thames in her Canadian canoe.

The Human Resources function is playing an increasingly important role in organisations which now expect a strong commercial focus and a drive for business results from their HR partners. This was far less evident only ten years ago.

The change to the Ulrich model has put the spot light on the HR community to deliver real value and tangible results for its stakeholders. The demands on a HR professional to be a commercial expert, often with a European or Global perspective are unprecedented. As organisations focus on finding and retaining the best talent across all their disciplines, it is the HR function which is ultimately responsible for driving the talent agenda. 

Successful management and retention of top talent will always be a key priority in any business and this can only be truly supported if the HR function is populated with the best talent in its market.

At Redgrave, we focus on discovering exciting talent in all the HR disciplines: Generalist, Talent/OD, Resourcing, Reward, ER, Shared Services and HR Ops, both in the UK and Internationally. We work across a broad range of sectors and are particularly active in Retail and Consumer, FMCG, Media, Telecoms, Retail Banking and Insurance

We focus on senior/board level opportunities often with a change or transformation agenda, in organisations that see the commercial value of HR and truly seek to partner with their HR experts.

The majority of our HR mandates focus on tracking and identifying talent at £100,000 - £300,000+ basic salary level.
