With over 8 years of experience as a VP of HR in global and diverse organizations, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise in HR management, strategy, and operations. I am currently the VP Total Reward and ad interim VP CHRM at Sonova Group, a leading provider of hearing solutions, where I oversee the Total Reward & Performance function for the entire group as well as the HR function for the Hearing Instruments segment.

I am passionate about creating a culture of excellence, innovation, and engagement, where people are empowered to grow and perform at their best. I have a proven track record of leading HR transformation, designing and implementing total rewards programs, managing HR due diligence and M&As, and enhancing employee relations and communication. I have also successfully navigated the COVID crisis, ensuring the safety, well-being, and productivity of all employees, while adapting to the changing business needs and market conditions. I am always looking for new ways to add value, optimize processes, and deliver results that align with the vision and mission of Sonova Group.

Around 25% of the world’s population is living with hearing loss. At Sonova, we envision a world where everyone enjoys the delight of hearing and lives a life without limitations. From personal audio devices and wireless communication systems to audiological care services, hearing aids, and cochlear implants. Our product brands – Phonak, Unitron, Sennheiser (under license), and Advanced Bionics – create compelling new products to offer the optimal solution for an ever growing consumer base through our globally diversified sales and distribution channels, including our well established global audiological care business. With a presence in over 100 countries and more than 16,000 employees, we leverage our global infrastructure and local roots. We aim for an inclusive work environment and culture that fosters a good balance of family and work-life for everyone. Our workforce is made up of 110 nationalities across 4 generations. We are pleased that 51% of all positions involving staff responsibilities are held by women. In 2006, Sonova founded the non-profit Hear the World Foundation, which seeks to give children living with hearing loss access to audiological care in low- to middle-income countries.
