ABOUT SALLY BLADES CHARTERED
HR Director with a strong track record of leading people-led transformation that delivers real commercial and cultural impact.In my role as HR Director at VEKA, I partner with the Managing Director and wider Board to shape and deliver multi-year people strategies that support growth, operational performance and organisational maturity within a complex manufacturing and group environment.My focus is on building high-performing teams, developing leadership capability at every level, and creating the conditions for sustainable performance. I have led transformation across organisational design, leadership development, reward and benefits, and cost efficiency—always with clear accountability, practical execution and measurable outcomes.I am passionate about developing future leaders, leading complex change, and translating strategy into simple, executable people plans supported by insight and metrics. I am straight-talking, pragmatic and trusted, with a leadership style grounded in trust, courage and responsibility.I believe HR should challenge, influence and deliver—acting as a true business partner, not a support function.Always open to thoughtful conversations on transformation, leadership effectiveness, organisational design, culture and performance.
