SKILLS
ABOUT SARAH PECK
I am a Senior HR Business Partner with over 20 years’ experience operating within complex, global, matrixed organisations. Currently partnering within Springer Nature’s Research Publishing division, including the Nature Portfolio, I provide strategic HR solutions to senior business leadership teams across a multi-country population of approximately 1,350 employees. I work closely with leaders up to EVP level, advising on organisational design, leadership effectiveness, talent strategy and complex change initiatives aligned to commercial priorities. My experience spans large-scale compensation and reward governance, including multi-country salary reviews totalling €7m+, implementation of global job architecture frameworks, cross-border employee relations and change initiatives requiring strong commercial judgement and stakeholder alignment. I am experienced in navigating complex international HR operating models, acting as the interface between business leadership, regional HR teams and Centres of Expertise to ensure consistent, pragmatic and legally compliant outcomes. I work autonomously with minimal supervision, managing multiple competing priorities and timelines while maintaining high professional standards and integrity. Earlier in my career, I worked within heavily unionised and safety-critical environments, building deep expertise in employee relations, Employment Tribunal defence and organisational change under pressure. I also have experience facilitating behavioural change and leadership development programmes at scale. I am motivated by providing credible, strategic and pragmatic HR advice, balancing commercial and business priorities with people needs, maintaining strong attention to detail, delivering positive and sustainable change, and building respected, trusted relationships.
