Kris

Kris has nearly 20 years experience in Talent and Human Resources (HR) Business Partner roles. He has worked in markets across Western, Central and Eastern Europe as well as Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Kris has worked with both front-line and support functions such as Finance, Treasury, Risk, Compliance and Technology in all of the organisations he has been employed by.

Kris set up Ren Advisory in January 2019 with a view to helping growing start-ups and SMEs address their Human Talent challenges. Kris firmly believes that Culture + Talent = Success. Consequently Ren Advisory’s mission is to help businesses achieve success through exceptional talent management strategies leading to high performance cultures.

The Company

A fully owned subsidiary of a food and beverage MNC and market leader. Headquartered in Singapore, the division operates in c. 15 countries, has 50+ plants and employs more than 30,000 employees.

The Challenge

The subsidiary has its own HR team structure – both within HQ in Singapore as well as the in-country HR teams. However, there is no specialist executive hiring team focusing on

senior hires, which require a “high touch” service.

In the past senior executive hiring was managed centrally managed by the parent company’s Executive Talent Acquisition team in North America. However, since the subsidiary’s HQ moved to Asia, this has proved more challenging.

Consequently, Ren Advisory was retained to help with senior executive out-reach and assessments.

The Solution

Ren Advisory was tasked with sourcing, assessing and helping close four senior roles for the subsidiary. Following a robust talent search, Ren Advisory was able to provide long lists of candidates for each of the four senior roles. For some of these roles, Ren Advisory also carried out a thorough assessment of internal candidates – thereby providing benchmarks v/s external candidates.

The Outcome

All four senior roles were closed within four months of Ren Advisory being retained. Additionally, as a result of Ren Advisory’s cost-effective solution, the cost per hire was significantly lower than using traditional headhunters and resulted in savings of 35-40% of typical headhunting fees.

Client Testimonial from CHRO – Global, Market Leading MNC (F&B Business)

“In a time of need, where quality and speed were of the essence, Ren Advisory were able to step in and provide both. In a candidate-driven market, they also understood the importance of candidate experience to the client’s employer brand and managed candidates exceptionally well. An additional icing on the cake was that they were able to deliver these hires with significant cost savings to the client.”
