Company details<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Industry: Real Estate Investment & Development<\/p>\n

Role: HR Director<\/p>\n

Headcount: 75 (UK-based, with European offices)<\/p>\n

Division: Human Resources<\/p>\n

The Challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The employer is one of the UK\u2019s largest multi-let urban logistics property developer and investment asset manager, with a strong ESG-led approach and ambitious growth plans across Europe. As the business expanded beyond the UK, the need for a senior HR leader became increasingly clear.<\/p>\n

The organisation required an HR Director with the depth and breadth of experience to support a growing, multi-jurisdictional workforce. This individual would need to navigate complex European employment legislation, support entity set-up across new territories, and work closely with senior leadership to build scalable people processes aligned with the business\u2019s long-term strategy.<\/p>\n

Given the seniority of the role, its breadth of responsibility, and the requirement for hands-on experience across multiple European markets, this was a highly specialist search.<\/p>\n

The Solution<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Tiger HR led a targeted and highly focused search. The brief centred on identifying candidates with proven experience operating across the UK and Europe, particularly those who had supported expansion into markets such as France and Germany and had first-hand experience of establishing HR infrastructure within new entities.<\/p>\n

They conducted a discreet headhunt, prioritising candidates with strong technical HR expertise, a solid grasp of European employment law and compliance, and the ability to partner confidently with C-suite stakeholders. Throughout the process, clear communication and a streamlined approach ensured minimal administration for the client while maintaining momentum.<\/p>\n

The shortlist presented closely aligned with the employers requirements, enabling them to appoint an HR Director who could immediately support both day-to-day operations and longer-term strategic objectives.<\/p>\n

The Impact<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The successful candidate is expected to play a pivotal role in supporting the employers continued growth across the UK and Europe. Their appointment strengthens the business\u2019s HR capability at a critical point in its international expansion and provides senior leadership with the expertise needed to manage risk, compliance and culture across multiple jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

Feedback<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cThe process was straightforward and efficient, with clear communication throughout. The shortlist met our expectations very well, and the successful candidate exceeded them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Looking ahead<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Following the successful appointment of the HR Director, Tiger HR continues to partner with the employer on further hires across business support functions, supporting the organisation as it scales both in the UK and internationally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
