Sophia Barker
HR Business Partner
As an experienced HR Director and Fellow of the CIPD since 2015, I bring over 20 years of success in shaping people strategies that deliver measurable business impact. With a B.A. in Business Law, I combine commercial acumen with deep HR expertise to navigate complex organisational challenges. I have successfully delivered people processes and policies across multiple geographies, including France, Germany, Greece, Spain, The Netherlands, Singapore, and the USA.
My career has included leading large-scale projects such as restructures, TUPE transfers, and performance management redesigns — always with a focus on balancing employee experience with business and financial priorities. Having worked in global B2B environments, I am recognised for building high-performing HR teams, enhancing employee engagement, and driving innovative people programmes that enable transformation and growth.
Clients working with me can expect a pragmatic, collaborative, and solutions-focused partner who brings clarity to ambiguity, leverages data for decision-making, and adapts to the unique context of each business. I am committed to delivering HR initiatives that are consistent, scalable, and inclusive — always with the aim of aligning people and business priorities to achieve sustainable success.
