Kevin Green

Kevin Green is a highly respected expert in talent management and organisational performance, best known for his influential tenure as the Chief Executive of the Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC). Under his guidance, the REC was transformed into the primary authority on the British labour market, shifting the focus towards member-led service excellence and enhanced professional development. Prior to this, he held the position of HR Director at Royal Mail, where he oversaw the people strategy for a workforce of 160,000. During this period, he was instrumental in a historic business turnaround that converted daily losses of £1.5 million into an annual profit exceeding £450 million. Throughout his career, Kevin has provided strategic counsel to major global entities such as Unilever, BAE Systems, and Lloyds Banking Group. As the author of Competitive People Strategy, he explores the vital links between leadership, employee engagement, and commercial success. His expertise extends into the future of work, where he investigates the integration of artificial intelligence and the evolving expectations of the modern workforce. He provides a balanced perspective on how technology can enhance business growth rather than causing disruption. A frequent media commentator on the BBC, Kevin is recognised for his ability to translate complex labour market trends into clear strategies for success. Audiences book him for his extensive experience in high-stakes business turnarounds and his practical approach to building inclusive, high-performing workplace cultures. On stage, Kevin Green is best known for talks on AI, Change Management, Business Turnaround and Hr & People. Audiences leave with a clear, practical view of the subject rather than a generic overview — every keynote is shaped around the brief and the room. Their work resonates with leaders across Business & Consulting and HR & People, where the themes translate directly into team decisions, customer experience and growth strategy.
