Karl Wood FCIPD FCPHR – HR Director and Founder

Portrait of Karl Wood

Karl has extensive international experience with strengths across Europe, Asia, Australia, and the US, building and leading high-integrity Human Resources teams with client groups from 100 to more than 2500 employees.

He partners and provides guidance and direction to global leadership teams in hospitality, creative and sports management sectors.

Known for helping organisations minimise risk in corporate governance and legal compliance, he has become seen as the HR Business Partner that “gets stuff done” – building trust and making a measurable impact on the balance sheet as well as the people.

He enjoys making a difference, being the Culture Champion and taking on the challenging projects others avoid.

Karl has been great to work with and whenever we have collaborated on projects he has always shown great professionalism, expertise and performance.

I worked with Karl on the creation and launch of a new global service programme and was during the time we worked together very impressed with his creativeness and drive. Karl is a very enthusiastic person that puts people first while trying to achieve business goals through and with people.
