I am an HR Director working for People Puzzles; a portfolio HR Director business. Our purpose is to help business owners achieve their goals by getting the right people on the bus and functioning as a high performing team. I strongly believe that if you can get the best out of your team you will be more profitable and successful as a result.As a People Puzzles portfolio HR Director I oversee all people-based activity within your organisation: strategic and tactical, to enable your business to deliver its vision and business plan.Most mid-tier businesses don't want, don't need or can't afford a full time HR Director.Motivating and managing people often slides down the priority list. However, no business can get ahead without effective, motivated and well trained staff. I work flexibly as part of your team to find straightforward solutions to your people puzzles, for a fraction of the cost of a full-timer.-We work with over 100 SME's on a recurring basis, usually weekly, providing them with strategic and commercial HR Directors-We have restructured more than 20 SME's in the last 2 years, usually saving each one more than £100,000 per year- This year we have provided in-house recruitment for our clients, saving them between £1,500- £8,000 per hire- in 2017 more than 60% of business came from referrals - We take only one in one hundred applicants to join our team, having rigorously screened them for their expertise, drive and energyI really enjoy building practical solutions to challenges, helping build high performing teams to enable ambitious companies to grow through their people.
