As a large global corporate group, but a local UK office we've got by with a central HR team, but as my headcount grew I knew we needed local support eventually, and at the start of 2020 Harwood HR Solutions were recommended, We signed up in the initial briefing not just from their credentials but we knew we could work together. Little did we know how 2020 would turn out and Zoe's support during the COVID-19 pandemic has been outstanding and i'm sure I say for both my senior management team and our UK employees, their guidance through the minefield of unprecedented new legislation has been crucial, we certainly couldn't have got by with the information supplied by government. We are now looking forward to building a positive modern workplace with Zoe's support. I can't recommend them highly enough.

COVID-19 pandemic posed a great challenge for employers and the interpretation of the Furlough scheme to different employee scenarios was a big a challenge to me and my clients. Luckily, we had Zoe at the end of a telephone to rescue us! Zoe has gone above and beyond not only to provide up to date information, but also to clarify what it meant for small business owners. She has support me in hiring team members, creating policies, and made the people management process smooth and manageable. I would highly recommend working with Zoe as an outsourced HR Partner. I am glad I did!
