Support for your HR needs

Employment laws can constantly change and keeping up to date as an employer can be time-consuming, but not complying can be costly. We offer the option for you to outsource your HR needs entirely to a team of dedicated experts, or simply for us to provide additional support to your existing internal team.

Our flexible and cost-effective HR support service can provide advice on managing employment and HR issues in your business - as much as you need, whenever you need it. Whether you are a small business with no HR experience trying to manage a difficult employee, or your internal HR team need a second opinion or additional support in handling a complex matter, we can take the worry away from you by providing practical and commercial advice, on the right side of the law.

What our HR advice team can do for you

We're not just here for legal advice on major restructuring exercises or employment tribunal claims. HR advice starts much earlier in the process, and we can provide hands-on support at your premises.

Whether you'd like us to handle a one-off employee problem, visit you on-site for management meetings, or provide help and support by email and phone, we can create a package to suit you.

We can take the worry away from you, creating better employee relations and reducing the risk of claims.
