HR Services – our approach
People Business works with small and medium sized (SME) businesses. Our HR team will ensure that you and your organisation are protected and operating within best HR practices and the law.
Our approach is to build a relationship with you to get your people matters into shape. We believe in encouraging our clients to establish the right people practices early on, so then they are able to focus on growing and developing their businesses rather than spending unproductive time resolving people problems later.
People Business is known for being pragmatic, clear and knowledgeable. And we’re friendly and approachable offering great flexibility in the way that we work. Our experience of working with SME clients over the years, demonstrates to us how much our flexibility is valuable to them.
Our HR team
People Business consultants’ experience covers all aspects of HR, and the team includes former HR Directors, HR Business Partners, learning and development and organisational development specialists, change management and mediation services professionals.
Because they have all come from the client side, our consultants have the ‘coalface’ experience to seamlessly embed themselves into the business driving its success while also being available for employees on-demand. They can use their experience and expertise to allow a business to navigate complexity and risk as it grows and/or undergoes organisational change – building a positive culture that gets in front of any potential issues before they emerge.
Our partners
Additionally, we partner with employment lawyers, pensions and benefit administrators, occupational health specialists and reward management consultancies to benefit from their experience and expertise on specialist projects.
We truly understand that the right support at an affordable budget is critical. Whether it’s providing consultancy across the entire HR spectrum or working with you on just one focused project, we always offer practical support in a professional but relaxed way to help our clients achieve the best possible outcomes.

What our clients say about us
Longacres
“All of us at Longacres would just like to say a big thanks to Natalie and all the team at People Business for the great help and assistance you have given to us all in the last few years. As our business has grown and expanded the pressure on the HR department was bound to increase. It was with your valued advice and guidance, over a very wide range of issues and challenging situations, that we have managed to cope with all the additional work that has come our way.
While our expanded team should now be able to deal more with the general work we have in such a busy retail environment, it is good to know that you would be available to step in and help deal with any more difficult and complex scenarios that may come our way in the future.”
