Rachael - HR & Employment Law Manager

Rachael has been with the organisation since 2011 when she joined as part of the HR Administration team, and we are hugely proud that she has progressed internally, and gained her CIPD Level 5 Employment Law qualification, and now heads up our HR & Employment Law team.

Rachael provides HR advice and support to a range of our clients across the UK and also works closely with our American and Canadian clients on how best to operate their business from within the UK. She prides herself on relationship building, and taking the time to understand the individual needs of the organisation so that she can tailor her advice accordingly, including working on-site with clients when necessary – this is reflected in the fact that Rachael has been the first point of contact for many of our largest and oldest clients for a number of years. Rachael also provides additional HR administration support including employee contracts, company handbooks, changes to terms and conditions of employment and payroll, and delivers bespoke HR training to line managers and supervisors.
