Julia Hanna

I have extensive experience of all aspects of reward having held senior consulting positions at Aon Hewitt, and Director-level in house roles at Astrazeneca and Standard Chartered Bank.

As Director of International Performance and Reward for Astrazeneca I managed reward governance with significant budgets.  I designed and implemented variable pay programmes to reward performance, potential and talent that were aligned to corporate strategy, and shareholder value. I also partnered with International Assignments to create a globally mobile cadre to meet the changing needs of the organisation and its workforce. Whilst at Standard Chartered, I was responsible for Executive Reward and worked closely with the senior team and regulators on the introduction of Code Staff Remuneration.

At Aon Hewitt I developed successful client relationships in the pharmaceutical, oil and FMCG sectors implementing flexible benefits, benchmarking international reward and total compensation measurement and design. More recently I have been a Client Director with a boutique reward consultancy, delivering successful projects for a number of clients in the retail, FMCG and energy sectors before founding Verditer Consulting in early 2015.

I hold a number of academic and professional qualification including an MBA, an Associate of the Pensions Management Institute, a Member of the CIPD and ILM7 qualified Executive Coach.  Away from the office I’m involved in Girlguiding UK at local and county level complementing my love outdoor activities and am a member of the Anglia Region Staff and Remuneration Committee. I also enjoy international and premiership rugby.
