FRACTIONAL HR ADVICE
GROW YOUR BUSINESS
Whether you're a start-up, scale-up, established business, or simply an organisation that doesn’t require full-time senior HR leadership — I offer fractional HR Director support tailored to your needs.
From Contracts of Employment and HR Policies to complex employee relations, recruitment, and compliance, I provide strategic, hands-on HR expertise that fits around your business — not the other way around.
​
Employment law and HR processes are constantly evolving, and your time is valuable. I offer flexible, affordable, and accessible support, giving you the confidence that your people practices are compliant, effective, and aligned with your goals.
​
As a trained Mental Health First Aider, I also offer wellbeing support for your team — especially valuable if you don’t have an Employee Assistance Programme in place.
Whether you need a sounding board, a strategic partner, or someone to take the pressure off your internal team — I’m here to help.
