Background

About Constanze Munz

Strategic HR Leader with a unique multidisciplinary background spanning Marketing, Sales, Procurement, and HR leadership across 20+ years in global organizations. With an INSEAD Executive Master in Change, I bring a business-first perspective to HR strategy that connects organizational performance with people development. Cross-Functional Perspective: My experience across multiple business functions gives me a distinctive edge in HR leadership - I understand how marketing drives customer engagement, how procurement delivers business value, and how these insights can transform HR strategy. Impact: I've led enterprise-wide culture transformations that increased employee engagement by +4 points, designed global L&D programs for 300+ professionals, and spearheaded DEI initiatives resulting in 30% women in leadership positions. Business-Aligned Approach: Having operated on both the commercial and people sides of organizations, I create HR strategies that directly support business outcomes while fostering environments where talent thrives. Currently leading behavior change initiatives through my consultancy "The Box" while seeking a full-time strategic HR leadership role where I can leverage my multidisciplinary background to drive organizational excellence. Previously held leadership positions at FrieslandCampina (Culture Transformation, Procurement, Global Marketing, Strategy), LIGANOVA (Key Account Management), and L'Oréal (Marketing & Sales), developing a 360° understanding of what makes businesses and people successful. Open to discussing strategic HR leadership opportunities where my diverse business experience can create value through innovative people strategies.
