Dual Senior Appointments for a PE-Backed Ophthalmology Company at a Critical Growth Inflection Point

The UK business made two regional hires: an HR Director to lead workforce strategy for the United States, Canada and Brazil, and a Finance Director to boost financial planning, reporting and strategic finance support. The HR appointment brings a private equity-backed growth experience, multi-country HR leadership, acquisition experience, and a track record of building HR infrastructure at scale. The Finance hire brings CPA-level financial leadership, deep FP&A and commercial finance experience and the ability to support regional growth with better forecasting, controls and executive reporting. Together, the appointments gave the client the regional executive capability it required in two key functions simultaneously, with new leadership established to support the next phase of growth in the Americas.
