Former ELMO Product Strategy Director joins Compono to help drive global growth through developing innovative talent hiring, development and retention products
Talent optimisation software company Compono has today announced Peter Scott, former Product Strategy Director at ELMO Software, as its new Chief Product Officer (CPO).
A leader with over 17 years of experience in shaping product strategies that help ambitious fast-growth businesses succeed, Scott is an expert in building products to optimise the talent that is hired, developed and retained within organisations.
He has previously held senior positions at The Learning Group, Talent2, Maximus International and ELMO Software where he played a pivotal role in helping the company transition to a SaaS platform provider.
At Compono, he will assume the responsibilities of CPO and drive the technology product strategy, building scalable and innovative solutions across the company. Scott will play a critical role in driving Compono’s vision of helping employers adapt to the rapidly evolving workforce by providing end to end talent solutions that realise the full potential of their people.
“It’s a very exciting time to join Compono. It’s clear that its products have been built with attention to detail and with a passion for solving complex problems. It’s that high level of care and polish that initially attracted me to the company,” said Scott.
“The business is at a point where connections are being made between its services and innovation is really starting to take shape. My first focus is on making the systems work together in a way that’s as simple as possible for the end user so they can get the most out of the platform.”
“Compono’s mission of powering people potential is an exciting one, and we’re only just scratching the surface of the value our unique science-backed technology can bring to the talent industry. We’re on a mission to understand the needs of people and in turn help businesses gain the right talent for their work, building stronger work cultures and engagement.”
Compono co-founder Carl Hartmann said of the appointment, “We are very pleased to bring a leader of Peter’s calibre on board. Peter brings with him a unique combination of product expertise and extensive experience in the human resources and recruitment sector. Compono is now entering the next stage of its development, as we set our sights on aggressive growth not just in Australia but around the world. With his supportive and collaborative leadership style, I believe Peter and his team are the right people to help shape Compono’s product offering into a truly global, competitive HR technology solution.”
