HR support service launched

We’re pleased to announce the launch of our HR support service, to assist businesses of all sizes with both their day-to-day and strategic HR requirements.

As Cheltenham solicitors, we work alongside external consultants to help both national organisations, as well as those based in Gloucestershire, that would benefit from joined up thinking and guidance from both their legal and HR advisors.

The consultancy is also aimed at those in need of additional resource or unable to take on certain investigations internally due to their sensitive nature. By providing a seamless service, with both legal and HR advisors working together, we can ensure our clients benefit from a consistent approach and outcomes are delivered as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.

The HR support offering was devised by the firm’s employment and business immigration team – recommended by national guides The Legal 500 and Chambers UK – who noticed that they were often contacted by businesses for help with their HR needs.

Head of employment and business immigration, Jenny Hawrot, who has been named a ‘next generation partner’ by national independent guide The Legal 500 commented:

“After a few years of successfully running this consultancy behind the scenes, we’re delighted to officially launch our HR support service as part of the firm’s offering. It’s a pleasure to work with organisations based both in Gloucestershire and further afield, and it’s really rewarding to be able to offer this extra level of support to help them manage their people and ultimately achieve their business goals.”

Work undertaken by Willans’ carefully selected HR consultants includes workplace grievance procedures, assistance with TUPE and redundancy processes, policy and process reviews, staff training and leadership programmes, employee engagement and recruitment support, development of HR strategies and more.

In October, our employment and business immigration team covered the latest updates in employment legislation in a free autumn webinar, which is now available to watch on demand. The webinar is aimed at directors, senior executives, HR professionals and in-house legal advisors.
