HR professionals, directors and business owners throughout the
region are invited to enjoy Christmas lunch with Stephen Gould,
Managing Director of Everards Brewery, at the next meeting of HR
Exchange, Derby's only dedicated HR networking group.
The event is taking place at Hilton East Midlands Airport hotel
(off J24 M1) on Thursday 1 December (12.30pm - 2.00pm).
Guests will be able to enjoy a festive three-course lunch before
listening to Stephen talk about the HR issues that he has
encountered during his ascent to the position of Managing Director
of Everards Brewery.
In addition to the issues covered at the event, there will also
be the chance to ask Stephen questions about specific issues of
interest.
Stephen joined the Leicester brewer as Trading Director in March
2003 and became Managing Director in 2005.
He has been responsible for the introduction of a number of bold
and inventive initiatives and lead many changes, including the
expansion of the pub estate, innovative business partnerships like
Projects William and Artisan, along with the sale of non-core
businesses - all with HR at the centre. In addition, he has
overseen a rebranding of the Everards ale range.
HR Exchange is the city's only dedicated HR networking group and
meets four times a year. Previous speakers include Ruth Badger from
BBC TV's 'The Apprentice' and Derby-based Kavita Oberoi, star of
Channel 4's 'Secret Millionaire', who both shared their HR
experiences with local businesses.
Commenting on the event, Rob Tice, Head of Employment Law at
Flint Bishop LLP said:
"Stephen has had a significant impact on the brewery sector and
his unique approach to the traditional pub tenancy has allowed him
to achieve great things.
"HR professionals, directors and business owners throughout the
region will all benefit from listening to Stephen's HR
experiences," added Rob.
A limited number of tickets for the event are now available,
