Welcome to the People Focus Podcast, with Gary Parsons from Talk Staff. Join us as we celebrate the most important asset that we all have – our people – the people that help keep our businesses running each and every day, the people that motivate us when times are hard, help us make decisions that don’t always feel like they’re the right ones and challenge us when we need to stay on track to achieve the overall company mission – the purpose behind why we do what we do. ______________ On this episode, Gary chats with Caroline Filer, Head of People & Payroll for Idverde, the UK & Europe's leading provider of grounds maintenance and landscape creation services. After pursuing a degree in law, she joined Clean Estates in 2007 and spotted an opportunity to support the business and it’s HR function. That’s where she met Gary in 2010, being looked after by Talk Staff ever since. 14 years later, after 2 buy outs and several mergers, Idverde now boasts 3500 colleagues and along with her amazing team, Caroline continues to support the growth of the business. Listen as she explains the secret to their success, tackling topics as merging employee values. ______________ Please FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE to the show, on your podcast app to be reminded of new episodes.
