Expert HR Consultants based in Oxfordshire for SMEs and Startups
Staff are essential for our business but they can be a challenge. The modern business owner hears words like “benefits”, “retention”, “engagement” - but what does it all mean?
Oxford People Solutions HR Consultants work with your business, not just on a reactive basis, but on a preventative one.
We don’t tie you in to lengthy contracts. Our HR experts are here to treat your business as if it were our own.
You might call upon our expert HR consultants to deal with an imminent HR issue, but we will gladly continue to work with you to develop your business to prevent HR challenges from occurring, and being prepared for what may come.
Whether you need support with employee grievances, absence management, dismissal procedures or recruitment we have decades of specialist HR experience and our HR consultants love to support companies just like yours to get the best out of your business and the people that drive it forward.
We can provide an HR audit to establish where you are against where you need to, and want to be.
If you have questions, try out our knowledge hub, where we aim to answer all your questions, such as “How do I write a good job description?” or “What HR policies does my small business need?”
If you would like to talk, a consultation is totally free, and our support starts from as little as £195pm.
All our prices are tailored to the size and needs of your business.
Don’t forget, you can tailor the services you need for your business growth across HR, Health & Safety and Business Management.
