Meet Your Plug-In People & HR Team

I focus on senior-level HR work — fractional HR leadership for businesses without a full-time HR Director, project-based work like restructures and post-acquisition integration, and HR transformation for organisations modernising their people function. I also provide executive and team coaching, often alongside the HR work.

I spent 5½ years inside a London AI consultancy as Global People Director — leading the people function through rapid growth and the human side of AI-driven workforce change. Most HR consultants haven't worked inside an AI-native business. That perspective shapes how I approach modern HR, performance management, and workforce transformation.

Yes — most of my engagements involve working with an in-house HR team, not replacing one. I tend to come in at director level to lead specific projects, advise on strategy, or provide senior judgment on complex situations. The HR team continues running operations; I focus on the work that needs my level of experience.

Yes. I'm Henley Business School / ICF-trained, and accredited in CliftonStrengths, Predictive Index, and TalentPredix. Coaching is often combined with HR work — particularly when I'm working with leaders going through change. Some clients engage me for coaching only.

Typically 1–3 days a week over 3–12 months, depending on the business stage and what's needed. I become an embedded part of the leadership team during that period — attending exec meetings, leading on people strategy, and acting as the senior HR voice in key decisions. Engagements can flex up or down as the work demands.

I work to a transparent day rate or project fee, depending on the engagement. After an initial conversation about what you need, I'll provide a clear quote — no retainers locked in for longer than the work requires. For specific guide rates, please get in touch.

No. I offer flexible engagement models from one-off projects to multi-month fractional support. Most clients start with a defined piece of work — a restructure, a scale-up build, an HR transformation project — and continue from there if it's working.

My consulting approach is fully customisable to your organisation's size, industry, and specific challenges. For smaller businesses, I often focus on establishing foundational HR practices and compliance. For mid-sized and larger organisations, I may develop more complex strategies around talent management, organisational design, and HR technology implementation.

Yes, I provide both in-person and remote consulting. I work flexibly across virtual meetings, assessments, and engagements — most of my clients are a mix of remote and on-site, depending on what each piece of work needs.

Most engagements can start within 2–3 weeks. For urgent work — a sudden restructure, a fast-moving M&A integration, a senior departure that needs covering — I can often start sooner. The first conversation will tell us if there's a fit.
