GridBeyond hires a new HR Leader to support global growth and support its talent acquisition strategy

GridBeyond, energy asset optimisation company, has appointed Laura Merriman as HR Leader to support global growth and develop its HR functions.

As the company opens to new markets around the globe, the new HR Leader will bring in those changes that the company needs to support its growth and development. GridBeyond has recently entered the Australian market in addition to the already existing North American and Japanese markets.

Laura has been working in HR for over ten years, she has worked for several industries including sports and gaming, pharmaceutical, security and software, which have allowed her to gain broad experiences. She holds an MSC in Talent, Leadership and HR Strategy and is a member of CIPD.

On joining GridBeyond, HR Leader Laura Merriman commented:

“Over the last year, GridBeyond has grown rapidly and since I have started, in a very short time, I have already advertised more than 15 vacancies, including a new Talent Acquisition position, which is going to support me in the company growth and development.

“The job is very dynamic, I am currently working with several markets at the same time and each market has its own challenges and differences and each of them requires different strategies.

“It is very interesting and rewarding, as I believe that people are the best assets for the company and that our ability to win in the marketplace lies within the talent and passion of our people. I’m committed to creating a culture and environment that makes us a great place to work”.

Michael Phelan, CEO at GridBeyond said:

“GridBeyond is growing globally at an increasingly fast rate, and we are very happy to have Laura joining our team to help us to support the company in this exciting time for us.
