HR CONSULTANCY

If you need to get your HR ducks in a row but aren’t quite sure where to start, working with an independent HR Consultant could be the answer.  From the operational basics like contracts, employee handbooks and policies, to higher level strategic advice on employee engagement or people strategies, we can lighten the load.  

In many businesses, HR can be the responsibility of a senior manager or company director who may not have specialist HR experience. If that’s you, using a qualified HR consultancy professional can help you achieve the results you’re looking for without taking up all your time.  We work with you, on-site or remotely, to keep your business compliant, your desk clear of HR paperwork and you engaged and motivated.

TRAINING

Training really is our thing! And we make it fun! It’s often viewed as a necessary evil in companies, and we prefer to make it a great use of people’s time – plus an opportunity for self-development and team bonding.

We encourage you to implement development plans to identify areas of personal growth for your teams. From there, we can help you build a suitable training and development plan, which allows managers and employees the opportunity to flourish.  Once trained, they’ll work with more confidence and blossom into their next position (if they want to).

Better performance means happier employees and in turn greater customer service. Let’s face it, we all know that means repeat business and money in your company’s pocket!

Not sure what sort of training you need or what’s available? Call us and we’ll happily chat through some ideas. We’ll help identify any training gaps and suggest the type and level of training that would work for you.  Maybe it’s help for first time managers, employment law for Company Directors or generally managing conflict in the workplace.

We’re also seeing increased interest in mental wellbeing and ‘Dignity at Work’ training.  This is often an area that managers and supervisors need help with. We are frequently told that managers are afraid of ‘getting it wrong’ and our sessions explore tricky and sensitive situations in a safe and risk-free environment.

Our courses are always informative, well-structured, beneficial and fun.  We’re happy to deliver ‘off the shelf’ packages but our real forte is creating bespoke sessions you really need (we’ll normally bring biscuits too!). 

After our courses have been delivered, we can continue supporting delegates through coaching and mentoring to ensure their newly acquired skills are put into practice and become truly embedded in the workplace.

We understand that taking steps to invest in training and choosing the right provider is a big decision.  If you’re looking for an HR consultancy partner to really understand and help your business, you’re in the right place. 

WORKPLACE WELLBEING

Workplace wellbeing is very close to our hearts.  It’s a topic that so many of us can relate to; whether it’s sleep, stress awareness, nutrition, exercise, financial matters, mindfulness or general health. If you need to develop a wellbeing strategy, we can sit beside you as your HR consultancy partner and guide you to develop something perfect for your business. 

Exploring where you are now and deciding where you want to be in the future is a sensible starting point. Then we can create a plan to get you there.  There’s more to workplace wellbeing than offering hatha yoga and lunchtime smoothies – our experience and your ideas could make a huge impact on the lives of your team.

TESTIMONIALS

“We were lucky enough to work with Sam as our first HR Manager in our scaling SME. Sam was absolutely fantastic to work with – adaptable, efficient, extremely capable and overall a pleasure to be around. She knows HR inside out and also has a fantastic grasp of how HR consultancy needs to fit with the overall company needs and direction.

Our business definitely benefited from Sam’s guidance, ideas and organisational skills. I have no hesitation of recommending her to other companies – large or small!” 

Founder and CEO (scaling SME)

“I had the pleasure of working with Sam over nearly 3 years supporting her from a legal perspective on a range of HR issues including employee relations/disputes, various projects (including TUPE and redundancy) and data protection. 

Sam is one of the most commercially astute and insightful HR professionals I’ve ever worked with. She is quick to understand the issues and devise practical solutions balancing the interests of the organisation and employees. Sam is a strong communicator and influencer; she brings people together and I have seen her excel at this is some very tense and challenging circumstances.”

Quickly understanding the business, the team and the wider industry environment. Offering suitable challenge, support and insight where needed I, and the HR BP Sam was covering, for are grateful for the year she gave us.”
