Renu has been part of the Severn Trent Rewards & Benefits team for the past five years, bringing with her over 15 years of experience in shaping compensation strategies across both UK and global organisations. She began her career as a solicitor, specialising in tax and pensions, before moving into advisory roles within Big 4 firms and inhouse.

What really sparked Renu’s passion for reward was her early work with employee-owned businesses. Seeing first-hand how inclusive and innovative reward packages could transform not just the employee experience but also business outcomes, she’s been a firm believer ever since. Today, she’s still driven by that belief—championing approaches that foster fairness, engagement, and long-term value for both people and organisations.
