Scaling the people side of the business
Lindsay is a Fellow of the CIPD with more than 25 years in senior HR roles across the private and public sectors. She has been HR Director at a law firm, held international HR Director-level roles with Gap and Banana Republic, and held senior HR roles across the automotive sector. At Supply and Scale she leads the people side of growth, so the operational and commercial plans land with a team that is hired, led and rewarded to deliver them.
Growth puts pressure on people long before it shows in the numbers. Lindsay gives founders and leadership teams the senior people leadership they need as they scale: workforce and recruitment planning, attracting and keeping the right talent, pay and reward that is fair and affordable, building manager capability, and supporting leaders through the difficult conversations that come with growth.
She also guides businesses through the moments when operational change affects people directly: a move to a 3PL, bringing fulfilment in-house, outsourcing a function, a restructure, or a merger or acquisition. That covers TUPE, consultation and redundancy, HR due diligence and a people plan before the change, then integration, aligning terms and keeping key people after it. She works alongside founders and teams to put it in place, balancing legal compliance, commercial goals and employee wellbeing.
