Seasoned People Leader to Drive Lattice’s Next Chapter in People + AI 

Lattice, the leading HR platform where people and AI succeed together, announced the promotion of Sophie Hurcombe to Chief People and Operations Officer from her previous role as SVP, People.

Sarah Franklin, CEO of Lattice, comments: “Sophie has demonstrated strategic vision, operational excellence, and the ability to connect people strategy directly to business outcomes. Expanding her role to lead AI transformation is a deliberate bet on what we believe: that AI transformation is fundamentally a people and process transformation, and the leaders who get that right will win. I can think of no one better to lead this charge.” Hurcombe spent five years building Lattice’s people infrastructure through periods of rapid growth and change, giving her a firsthand understanding of what organizations need to adapt without losing their focus on people in the process. She brings that experience directly to Lattice’s internal AI transformation initiative — developing AI playbooks to benchmark success, evaluating workflows across core business functions, and ensuring people remain at the center of every implementation.

Sophie Hurcombe, Chief People and Operations Officer, comments: “I’m proud to have this opportunity. As AI transforms every company and role, I believe it’s truly HR’s moment to lead. We have a strategic seat at the table in figuring out how businesses operate in a People + AI world. At Lattice, we’re leading that transformation from the inside out – building cultures where AI is deployed in service to people. I’m deeply energized by what we’ve built as a team and even more excited for what’s ahead.”

My co-founder Kim and I never set out to start an “HR tech” company. We were just interested in answering: “how do you help people do their best work, and remove the day-to-day friction that gets in the way. Every company has it. Leave requests, payroll questions, policy lookups, access issues, employment letters, updating information. Small things individually, but constant, and it really adds up as a company grows. We started noticing this pattern when we were both managers ourselves. The same kinds of questions and operational tasks kept surfacing. And when we spoke to HR leaders, we heard the same thing again and again: huge amounts of time going into coordination work – preventing that team from doing what th...
