Great at running a business. Less sure about the people bit?
*You’re not alone
This is for you if...
You’ve been winging the people stuff and you know it’s catching up with you
You’ve had a difficult situation before and don’t want a repeat.
You’re looking to grow but worried about having the right foundations in place
You’re spending too much time working in the business rather than on it
You’ve got a specific situation and just need the right person to help you sort it
You’re worried about legislation changing and your documentation being out of date

HR support that fits your business
Some businesses need an HR Director in their corner every month. Others just need the right support for a specific situation. Here’s what’s available.
Fractional HR Director
You don’t need a full-time HR Director — but you could benefit from the expertise. Fractional means you get a former Global Head of People embedded in your business, handling both the strategic and day-to-day people elements, without the full-time salary, employer NI, and commitment of a permanent hire. I’m in your business regularly, I know your people, and I understand the team dynamics. You’re supported. The team is supported. The business is supported.
Ongoing HR advice
Retained, remote HR support that gives you a knowledgeable point of contact who actually knows your business. Available by phone, email or video call — advice that’s bespoke to your culture, your team, and the way you work. Not a call centre, not a generic helpline. Just the right person, only ever a call away.
Projects
Sometimes you don’t need ongoing support — you just need a specific job doing properly. Whether that’s a full compliance review, drafting and implementing documentation, policies and handbooks, or managing the people side of a redundancy or restructure — projects are scoped, priced, and delivered as a standalone piece of work. Clean, contained, and done right.
Ad hoc support
Sometimes you just need the right help for one specific situation. A disciplinary. A grievance. A termination. Maternity leave queries. Whatever’s landed on your desk that you’re not sure how to handle — pay for what you need, when you need it. Ad hoc fixes the situation in front of you. If you find yourself coming back, that’s usually a sign that ongoing support would serve you better.

Before working with Sophie, we had an outdated and non-compliant HR documentation and processes. Now it’s streamlined, and we have the knowledge and confidence we needed to be effective in our HR approach.
