Medik8 Executive Coaching

January 1, 2026

The Brief

Medik8 is an award-winning, science-led British skincare brand specialising in high-performance dermocosmetics. Founded in 2009, the brand has grown from an independent, professional-first lab supplying medical clinics into one of Europe's fastest-growing skincare powerhouses, culminating in its acquisition by L'Oréal in 2025.

Medik8 approached Coachable in 2023 having recently restructured following private equity investment from Inflexion and a new CEO (Simon Noble), along with a new Chief People Officer (Aimee Campbell) to help them build their senior team’s operating model and growth plans. 

They asked Coachable to support with executive coaching for seven of their their VPs in the leadership team. Each leader needed 360 feedback and have the autonomy to select their own coach to find the right chemistry.

The Solution

Here’s how our partnership worked for Executive Coaching:

  1. Each leader received 360 feedback using our LQ Report, which gave them peer and line manager feedback across the Six Coachable Behaviours. 
  2. Leaders were invited to book two chemistry calls with our panel of executive coaches to find a coach that suited their personality and style. 
  3. Their 360 feedback was debriefed by their coach, and they set goals for coaching 
  4. Their coach facilitated a triad call between the VP and Medik8’s CEO to align on the coaching programme direction
  5. 12 months support with 6 x 90 minute coaching sessions to support their leadership development, relationship building and team growth
  6. A review session with their CEO happened at the end of the coaching engagement to reflect on the impact of the coaching on their performance

Medik8 had oversight on the feedback reports, goals and end of programme reviews, but otherwise the coaching relationships are kept strictly confidential. 

Coachable has their own digital platform to manage 1-1 coaching programmes at scale giving leaders and client sponsors a single destination to manage their programme and get visibility on where each person is at.

The Impact

Along with clear shifts in behaviour and confidence, Medik8 was successfully acquired by L’Oreal Group, who took a majority stake in the business in June 2025 based on the strong performance of the team in the 18 months prior. 

Coachable has continued to support Medik8 with executive coaching, extending to various layers of leadership across 2025 and 2026.
