Who HR advisory for

Managing people well takes time, clear processes and sound advice. Growing businesses often don't have a dedicated HR person yet, and established HR teams sometimes need extra hands or help with a particular project.

We give you practical HR support that fits your size, structure and priorities. We can help you put the basics in place, support your managers day to day, and turn HR plans into processes that actually work.

You can use us as your outsourced HR function, as extra capacity for your existing team, or for a single project.

What is outsourced HR, and how does it work?

Outsourced HR means an external partner handles some or all of your HR work. LynneWaters can act as your full HR function or support your existing team with extra capacity and expertise. Every engagement starts with an agreed workplan, deliverables and scope, so you always know what support to expect.

Does my business need a full-time HR person?

Not always. Many growing businesses get the HR support they need from an outsourced partner until they are large enough for an in-house team. It gives you experienced HR advice without a full-time hire, and the support can grow as you do.

Can you help with a once-off HR project?

Yes. Common projects include an HR review and action plan, updating employment contracts, policies and handbooks, writing job descriptions, designing organisational structures and setting up performance management.

Can you help with grievances and disciplinary matters?

Yes. We guide managers through grievances, disciplinary processes and other employee relations matters, so they are handled fairly, consistently and with proper records. This support is provided within the scope agreed with you.

Do you offer training for managers?

Yes. We coach and train managers in interviewing, giving feedback, performance management and leadership, so they can handle everyday people matters with confidence.
