My role was focussed on organisational design workstreams. This involved turning the deal's synergy targets into clear people requirements for each function, then working with teams to design the future organisation and determine where roles would fit.
I then worked with UK stakeholders to develop the detailed UK organisation design, underpinned by clear rationale and supporting analysis.
The work involved helping the executive team set and validate synergy targets, assess the impact on teams and plan organisational changes. In the UK, I worked with teams including Pricing and Technology to design future team structures, provide supporting analysis and prepare day-one readiness materials.
The result was an executive team fully aligned on the high-level global organisation design, and an agreed path to achieving the synergy targets. In the UK, teams were operationally ready for Day 1, from business communications through to first 100-day plans that set people up to succeed in their new roles.
