Coca-Cola europacific partners - client story

A global business. An on brand and consistent welcome.

Global Workforce

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners is one of the world's largest Coca-Cola bottlers, operating across more than 30 countries with a workforce spanning manufacturing, logistics, field sales and corporate roles.

Colleague Listening

Through listening sessions with colleagues, a consistent theme emerged: new starters expected a tangible welcome, something that said, 'you're now an important part of CCEP, and these are our values.'

Values-led welcome

Their ambition was to create consistent, culturally aligned and administratively easy welcome communication. In 2025, CCEP launched our Onboarding gift service, piloting in the UK, with plans to scale globally in 2026.

Digital Talent Management, Jasmine Gill

“We've been very intentional about where AI doesn't play a role... our current priority is to ensure new starters feel genuinely welcomed, supported, and connected by real people from day one. 

Our Onboarding Welcome Gift pilot results are in and the early signals are powerful. Outcome: eNPS +73 for the pilot experience (FYI this is a world-class NPS!) 

Human connection is designed into every stage of our journey." 

Your onboarding process is only as strong as the human experience it creates 

You've invested in your employer brand. You've built a values framework.  

But for many HR leaders, one critical gap remains: what does your organisation actually say to a new joiner in the moment they arrive? 

As organisations digitalise and introduce AI into their talent processes, there's a real risk that efficiency comes at the cost of connection.  

The moments that make a new joiner feel seen, valued and excited to be there can quietly disappear, replaced by automated communications and self-serve portals.  

Human connection doesn't happen by default. It has to be intentionally designed in. 

Ad-hoc gestures, or nothing at all, leave new starters feeling overlooked, undermine your EVP, and erode the trust and retention you've worked so hard to build. 

The first day is the first proof point. It tells a new joiner whether the values they heard about in their interview are real.

Uplifting People transforms new joiner welcome merch from a transaction into an experience, one that truly connects your people strategy with your values, and makes your new colleagues feel incredibly proud. 

Your gift is part of a big story. We donate 100% of profit to vulnerable children, over $1 million so far.  

Your branded notebook doesn't just welcome a new joiner. It also helps a vulnerable child access education and look to a bright future too. That's your culture, made visible. 

+73 NPS World-class result

CCEP UK achieved an employee Net Promoter Score of +73, described by the team as world-class, and the foundation for their plans to roll out their onboarding gift globally.

Seamless for HR 

We slot into your onboarding process and look after everything, so it’s very easy for your team.

100% profit to children

Every gift supports vulnerable children around the world to be safe, loved and learning. Over $1 donated so far, and counting.

A transaction transformed into an experience

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners weaves the story of the children their gifts support through their onboarding journey, from the branded gift set and welcome card on Day 1, to video footage of the children learning at school, shown at their 90-day engagement survey.

Using our content at this touchpoint has significantly increased their survey response rate, contributed to stronger survey scores, and forms part of their world-class eNPS.
