Our Story & Values

Having worked in Human Resources Management for most of their working lives, Founder Peter Lawrence, and Co-Director, Rod Lee, saw a gap in the market; to provide the high quality Operational and Strategic HR Support to Small & Medium Sized Businesses that is enjoyed by larger corporates. 

We believe People Management expertise provides a key competitive advantage for SME businesses, and that many smaller companies do not have the resources and depth of expertise needed to manage the Human Resources function and this can hinder growth. 

Our Vision

Our vision is to provide expertise, drawn from experience with leading international companies establishing us as the "Go-To" experts in Operational and Strategic HR support. Our ambition is to become a well thought of, and well recognised brand, for all things related to People Management and Development.
