HR Advice & On-going Support

Running a business means making people decisions every day — and getting them right matters.
I provide clear, compliant HR advice when you need it, without the cost or commitment of employing in-house HR. I’ll work alongside you to help you manage issues confidently, reduce risk and make informed decisions.

Support can include:

Day-to-day HR advice and guidance
Managing absence, performance and conduct issues
Advice on contracts, terms and conditions
Support with tricky conversations and decision-making
Acting as your outsourced HR function

Whether you need ad-hoc advice or ongoing support, you’ll have access to calm, professional guidance that fits your business.

Policies, Processes & Compliance

Good HR policies don’t need to be complicated — they just need to be clear, compliant and workable.

I help businesses put the right policies and people processes in place, ensuring you meet your legal obligations while supporting a positive working environment.

This includes support with:

Employee handbooks and HR policies
Contracts of employment and offer letters
Absence management and performance processes
Disciplinary and grievance procedures
Ensuring compliance with current employment legislation

All policies and processes are tailored to your business — no generic templates or unnecessary paperwork.

I provide practical, impartial support to help you handle employee relations matters fairly, professionally and in line with employment law.
I can support you with:

Performance management and capability issues
Sickness absence and attendance concerns
Disciplinary and grievance matters
Workplace conflict and difficult conversations
Managing sensitive or complex situations

You’ll have reassurance that issues are being handled correctly, calmly and with care — for both your business and your people.

Change & Growth Support

Change is a natural part of running a business — but it can be one of the most challenging times to manage well.
I support businesses through periods of change, helping you plan carefully, communicate clearly and manage people impacts with confidence.

Support includes:

Business growth and organisational change
Restructuring and role changes
Redundancy planning and consultation
Employeee engagement programmes & initiatives
Supporting managers and teams through change

My focus is on helping you manage change in a way that’s legally compliant, people-focused and aligned with your values.

Not Sure What You Need?

You don’t need to know exactly what type of HR support you’re looking for — that’s part of my job.

Many clients come to me with a specific issue, a general concern, or simply the sense that they “should probably get some HR support in place”. We’ll talk through what’s going on in your business and identify the most appropriate next steps.

There’s no pressure to commit and no obligation — just a practical, honest conversation to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

If you’re unsure where to start, a free, no-obligation chat is a good place to begin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both options are available. Some businesses need occasional advice or help with a specific issue, while others prefer ongoing support for reassurance and continuity. We’ll find an approach that works for you.

I specialise in supporting small and growing businesses, particularly those without or with very limited in-house HR resource. My approach is designed to be proportionate, practical and tailored to the size and culture of your organisation. However, I am able to work on projects with any size of organisation.

Absolutely. I can review and update existing policies, check compliance, and help ensure your processes work in practice — not just on paper.

Yes. I offer flexible and affordable support options designed specifically for small and growing businesses. You only pay for the level of support you need — nothing more.
