Who we work with

Predominantly we work with small and medium sized organisations who need support to align their commercial growth strategies with strong people practice.

Our clients are looking for a trusted, straight-talking HR provider to advise on best practice, implement solid processes, and guide them on setting up people structures that lay the foundations for stability and growth. 

Our advice is always unique and tailored to your business, and won’t break the bank either. We understand that small business owners don’t typically have a huge budget to spend on HR, so we come up with smart ways to give you the support you need that is affordable.

Common challenges from our clients are:

  • developing and embedding compliant and practical company policies and HR processes

  • auditing existing policies, contracts, and processes to ensure compliance and reduce business risk 

  • supporting with practical employment relations issues such as grievances, investigations, long-term sickness, or conduct/capability concerns

  • recruiting and onboarding key talent 

  • designing and delivering critical L&D and training initiatives 

  • workforce and succession planning

  • managing organisational restructure and redundancy processes 

  • coaching and supporting managers to get the best out of their teams

If any of these things sound like challenges you currently face, then you've come to the right place. We understand that many of the above concerns can easily become the kind of thing that keep SME business owners up at night, and we want to take that worry away. 

What we offer

We offer a wide range of services including:

  • HR Policy creation and auditing

  • HR Processes creation and optimisation

  • Employment Relations support including investigations, grievances, disputes, mediation, appeals, disciplinary, sickness and absence, and performance improvement plans.

  • Risk and Compliance reviews including external audit preparedness (e.g. ISO27001)

  • Training

Whatever your need, big or small, we’re here to support.

Retained Support
A great option for businesses looking for reliable, consistent outsourced HR advice. Based on the anticipated workload and size of business, we agree a number of hours each month that Altitude HR will deliver. 
The big benefit of retained support is that we get to know each other really well over time, so your HR support becomes more and more bespoke and tailored to the unique needs of your business as you grow.

Ad Hoc Consulting
For business who have a specific project or time-bound requirement for HR support, ad hoc consulting is the best choice for you. We discuss and understand your need, and agree either a fixed price for delivering the project or an hourly/daily rate for time spent on the project. 
This is a great choice if you know you have a limited, specific need for HR support. With Altitude HR, you can trust that your challenge is getting the focus and experience it needs.
