I support employees to navigate HR processes in the workplace. This could be help to understand something like a disciplinary or performance management issue. I help to explain the legislation that underpins the process and try to unpick whether the employer is acting legally. I also help the employee to consider the best route through (even where the employer is acting within the legislation). I act as an advocate and support and debrief with the employee from the sidelines. Sometimes employees need help to work through an interpersonal problem e.g. with a manager or peer, or just need HR coaching and advice for generally getting through the current corporate landscape.

I’m just as comfortable setting the strategy as I am rolling up my sleeves to get things done with an operator mindset: move fast, keep it simple, and build for scale. 👉 Learn more: www.StartupTalentHR.com
