HR consultancy & support
Our HR consultants work closely with our employment solicitors to provide additional support to our clients. They work with our clients’ in-house HR teams, as well as with businesses who do not have an HR team at all, to provide an external HR resource.
Our consultants help businesses with day-to-day HR queries, provide support on major HR projects or lead an HR audit of your business so you can be confident that your HR practice is in good order.
They can attend sensitive meetings (such as disciplinary or grievance hearings) where a solicitor’s presence might be unwelcome or even inflammatory.

HR audits
Our HR consultancy offers an initial full review of all your existing HR processes in the employee lifecycle from recruitment and induction to exits. We follow this with a risk report and a breakdown of HR projects required in an easy-to-read report. You can then choose to instruct our Employment & HR team to carry out the projects identified, as appropriate.
“We have used Clarke Willmott’s employment law services from the very inception, and throughout this time they have successfully negotiated us over the various legal hurdles thrown into our path. So when Servium reached a size that called for a more consistent level of day to day HR support the obvious choice was to partner with Clarke Willmott and in particular Juliette Staunton.
“Where the relationship with Clarke Willmott works particularly well is the seamless integration of Juliette’s HR [Consultancy] Service with the Legal team we’ve known for so many years. It’s very comforting to know that all our HR advice comes from one organisation which can be crucial in complicated matters.” Patrick Wyly, CFO Servium Ltd
