clients’ success stories

We were recommended Carol by a friend. As new business owners we found ourselves in a difficult situation with inherited staff. Carol guided us through the process and drafted correspondence in line with legalities and best practice. She was at the end of the phone at short notice and even went above and beyond for the staff member involved. Overall, she provided an excellent personal service at very reasonable cost. Would not hesitate to recommend or use again!

Carol was instrumental in transforming workplace relationships and driving positive change. She built trust between the union and site leadership team, creating a collaborative environment that delivered real results. Her ability to operate credibly and authentically at both strategic and operational levels sets her apart. A true professional who leads with integrity and impact.
