A HR professional with over 20 years’ experience, I enjoy helping businesses solve employee problems. Whether that’s taking on your first employees, concerns with performance, conducting a disciplinary or dealing with a grievance, I can help!
Before deciding to become an Outsourced HR Consultant, I worked within retail, wholesale distribution, utilities, professional services and construction sectors. I have completed many HR roles in my time from specialist roles in reward and benefits, change management, talent development to more generalist roles, like heading up a HR team at a construction machinery distributor, where I was responsible for the full remit of HR.
Strong delivery focus alongside attention to detail and accuracy are core in my delivery approach.
When I’m not helping businesses solve employee problems, I like to run. I find it clears the mind and creates focus. When I’m running that’s when I’m creating my plan of action [POA] for the tasks ahead. I’m known by my family and friends for my POA’s!
Are your employment contracts up to date, would you be able to rely on them if there was a dispute?
Do you know where to start with a disciplinary issue, do you need to carry out an investigation, what do you need to include in an invite letter for a disciplinary?
An employee has complained, is this a grievance, where do you start?
Do your employees know the standards your business expects from them in their day-to-day activities?
Want to be able to provide regular feedback to employees on performance and guidance on development, but don’t want to use an onerous appraisal system. A personalised performance and development review process and form can be designed for your business.
What should you do when an employee doesn’t report their absence and is not contactable? Do you have an employee that is having lots of days off that is having an impact on your business?
Have an employee with performance concerns and need help to find the right solution to manage the process.
