The consultancy’s HR experts Julia Jones and Amanda Coleman, plan to act as back-up for senior managers from a wide range of businesses, from fast-growing start-ups, thriving SMEs, through to multi-million pound businesses that need support to manage a specific project or training need.
With experience in management and people development, Julia and Amanda are well-versed in finding workable solutions for businesses looking to get the most out of their staff.
“Although Gloucestershire has a number of existing HR consultancies our clients have the reassurance of knowing that, because we work closely with BPE’s acclaimed employment team, any advice that we provide will be up-to-the-minute and legally sound at all times,” said Julia Jones.
“Whether clients need help with recruitment and selection, employee relations, performance management, managing ill-health or corporate and HR strategy, they can depend upon us to handle these issues leaving them to concentrate on running their business,” added Julia, a chartered member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development.
The team’s specific areas of skills and expertise include:
• Recruitment and selection
• HR practice, policies and practices, pay and reward and annual staff
handbook audits
• Supporting businesses undertaking company reorganisations and
restructures
• Disciplinary and grievance
• Redundancy consultation and administration
Lisa Gettins, head of Employment at BPE Solicitors LLP said: “Our HR consultancy is a welcome addition to the service we provide to hard-pressed employers and several of our existing employment clients have already expressed an interest in working with the team.”
