Valerie helped me navigate the choppy waters of HR, she assisted me in pulling together employee contracts and policies effortlessly. She made the whole process so easy from start to finish, she could foretell the issues that would need addressing and made sure that I am 100% protected in all that I do. As a new business, Valerie has taken a huge worry and stress off me whilst making it both practical and applicable to my own unique company needs, and I know she is on hand with more expert advice if anything is to pop up in the future. I highly recommend Valerie for all our HR needs - you find better.

“The advice and support from Simply HR in a recent internal HR issue gave me the confidence to handle a tricky situation, but more importantly in a small business it meant that I could get on with running the business, knowing that the correct procedures were being followed in the background. We achieved the desired outcome and will welcome Valerie and her team back to the business to manage the routine stuff!!”
