  • What is included in the Retained HR service? What extras might I need to pay for above this?
    Our retained HR service offers comprehensive support for your organisation at a cost-effective rate. The fee structure is based on the number of employees you have, starting from £99 per month for 1-5 employees and increasing incrementally. Registered charities receive a 20% discount. With our retained service, you gain access to a range of benefits. We provide expert advice on HR and employment law matters during regular business hours, with availability for urgent matters outside these times. Our service safeguards your organisation, offering HR management at a fraction of the cost of hiring a dedicated HR manager or department. We also offer the creation of bespoke documents, templates, forms, or policies tailored to your organisation's needs within a quick turnaround time. You'll have access to weekly training sessions on various HR topics, as well as membership access to our website featuring informative blogs to keep you up to date with HR and employment law. Additionally, we conduct a thorough HR health check of your organisation, ensuring we understand your specific requirements. Please note that the retained fee does not cover in-person activities such as investigations, conflict management, or disciplinary meetings unless otherwise agreed upon. The minimum contract length is 12 months, with auto-renewal thereafter. Our service is ideal for organisations with an existing individual fulfilling the HR function within the organisation, such as an Office Manager or HR Assistant.
  • How do you ensure clients urgent HR concerns are addressed outwith ordinary business hours?
    I understand that urgent HR issues can arise outside of regular business hours, and as a sole practitioner, I handle the business operations myself. While my general availability is during regular business hours, I am committed to providing timely support when you need it most. I offer a dedicated contact method for urgent matters beyond those times, allowing you to reach me outside of regular hours for immediate assistance. Please note that as a dedicated HR consultant, I do take holidays. However, any planned absences will be communicated well in advance to ensure minimal disruption to your organisation. Rest assured that even during my absence, I have measures in place to ensure continuity of support, and I will provide alternative contacts or arrangements if necessary. Your satisfaction and the smooth operation of your business are my top priorities. Please reach out to me using the designated contact method provided, and I will respond as soon as possible to assist you with any urgent HR matters.

  • How do you customise your services for companies you work with?
    I provide a personal approach when working with all my clients. They can choose for me to visit them at their business or online via Zoom, whichever is easiest for them. I get to know the client and their staff, understand the HR needs of the organisation and work with the information I have to create bespoke documentation and advice/guidance, relevant to that organisation. I recommend every client stays with me beyond the HR Starter Pack, to use me as a Retained HR Service where I work closely with organisations, building on the knowledge I already have of the organisation to help it grow and improve.

  • What is your fee structure and payment terms?
    At my HR consultancy, I believe in being transparent about my fee structure and payment terms. I understand the importance of budget considerations, and I strive to make my services as affordable as possible while ensuring compliance with employment laws. For the retained service, the fee starts at £99 per month for organisations with 1-5 employees. The price increases in small increments for organizations with larger teams, up to 250 people. This fee is for a minimum contract duration of 12 months, providing you with consistent HR support. For additional services or tailored solutions, I am happy to provide bespoke quotes to meet your specific needs. Payment for the retained service is conveniently set up via standing order, ensuring hassle-free and consistent billing. For HR Starter Packs, invoices are issued and payment is required before any work is carried out. Ad hoc work will be invoiced upon completion, with payment due by the cutoff date specified on the invoice. I value open communication and transparency, and I am committed to providing high-quality HR services that align with your budgetary requirements. Feel free to reach out to discuss your specific needs, and I will provide you with detailed pricing information.
