Leadership
House of HR has a unitary governance structure at Group level. The House of HR leadership is made up of:
Board of Directors Executive Committee
Leadership Team Innovation Committee
ESG Committee Audit & Risk Committee
People Committee
Board of Directors
Since its creation in 1995 the Group has relied on strong financial support. From 2012 to 2022, Naxicap Partners from France were as the majority shareholder, a solid financial and strategic partner.
During 2022 Bain Capital Private Equity took over the majority shareholdership from Naxicap. Since then Bain Capital holds 55% of the shares. Naxicap, Conny Vandendriessche and a group of managers at House of HR divide the remaining part of the shares.
They can count on a strong strategic team of board members with relevant expertise and knowledge in HR and other various industries.
