Human resources consultancy

Whether a company employs one member of staff or 10,000, our HR consultants focus on every area within the framework needed to support, nurture and develop these key individuals and teams.

Recruitment
The team are experienced in recruitment campaigns for board level executives, middle managers and junior personnel. From job advert through to formal offer of employment we can manage the process ensuring you attract good candidates and secure the right person.
Contracts
Most employees are entitled to a contract of employment. A mistake at this stage of the process can prove very costly in the longer term. Our experts produce these legal documents on a daily basis and know exactly what language to use leaving employer and employee with a clear understanding of what is agreed.
Team development
A significant factor in the successful retention of the best people in an organisation is the maintenance of a positive and consistent approach to personal development. This includes regular appraisals, training and performance monitoring. We can put these structures in place for you and provide the training and support to Managers and Supervisors to make them effective.
The law
Employment law covers every conceivable outcome or eventuality involving an employee. Coupled with related Acts such as Health and Safety at Work and Disability Discrimination, employers are in an unenviable position in terms of mitigating the risk of litigation. We can advise employers about their rights and the rights of their employees, helping to ensure the maintenance of good relations across the workforce.
Discipline & grievance
It is sometimes necessary to take disciplinary action involving an employee. This can lead to various outcomes including dismissal. However, the management of any disciplinary or grievance procedure requires specialist handling to avoid potential claims against the employer at a later date. We understand the sensitivities involved in such cases and are used to working within the parameters that govern these matters
