On Running

Turning circularity ambition into real commercial value

The Now Work — On

The project in a nutshell:

We supported one of the world’s fast-growing performance running shoes and clothing companies to develop and deliver an ambitious suite of circularity programmes.

Services

  • Flexible talent placement

The challenge

With new circularity targets set, On needed hands-on support to develop and deliver its suite of circularity programs. The aim of these programmes is to get the business closer to its long-term vision of becoming circular through design and business models. With internal bandwidth in the sustainability team stretched, On needed a flexible talent solution that would enable them to operationalise their programmes seamlessly.

    ONBOARDING

    With On successfully matched to a circularity programme manager, we supported both the talent and our client to get everything in place for the best possible start.

Our solution

We matched On with a circularity programme manager with extensive experience in circular development and delivery within the apparel and performance wear sector. The placement was so successful that On continued the engagement for a further 6 months. Our talent placement model was the perfect solution to help On accelerate delivery and turn circular ambition into real action and commercial value.
