I recently had assistance from Caryl in regards to HR, she delivered a service that was bespoke to what I needed and we discussed my requirements in detail and Caryl ensured that I was happy with everything. Communication throughout was great and nothing was too much for her. I will be using Caryl again for support going forward.

I can highly recommend Caryl and the HR Dept team. Super knowledgeable and very approachable, Caryl made the HR issues that we had to deal with understandable and less stressful. Going forward Caryl will be my first port of call for any HR issues going forward.
