Lisa Robbins
VP Partner Resources, Starbucks Coffee Company
Lisa transformed Starbucks' EMEA Partner Resources into a strategic, data-led function by implementing a new HR system across company-operated markets. This reduced administrative burdens and provided partners with self-service tools for the first time. Beyond traditional HR, she served as executive sponsor for a regional operating model reset that identified £30m in supply chain savings and halved the time to market for product innovations. Her leadership also focused on social impact, supporting refugee initiatives in the Middle East and employment pathways for ex-offenders in the UK, all while refreshing leadership frameworks to prioritize emotional intelligence.
