Personnel Today’s HR Directors Club is celebrating signing up its 1,000th member.
Membership of the club – a forum for senior-level HR professionals – reached the landmark figure when Richard Latham, head of HR at housebuilder Persimmon, joined earlier this month.
Launched in April 2003, the club was set up to provide HR leaders with business inspiration and the chance to meet their peers. It has evolved to offer wider networking opportunities by opening up various levels of membership, such as associate level for finance directors and chief executives, and affiliate membership for aspiring HR directors.
