Interim HRD

Beetlestone can provide Interim Human Resources Director cover as and when your business is required.

This may be to cover the absence of an in-house position HRD or to support a more junior less experienced HR team through a complex project such as TUPE, or Redundancies, or that they would simply benefit from working with a more experienced HR professional to give them strategic focus and coaching and mentoring.

An interim HRD will review current processes for effectiveness and make recommendations for more efficient, compliant processes if required.

Assignments are priced based on complexity or requirements and organisation, size of the organisation and time scales. Costs will reflect a proportion of the return on investment that an organisation will benefit from for this service.
