I had the pleasure of working with Kala when they carried out some HR services for PIBA. We found the team extremely knowledgeable and their advice and work when auditing our HR procedures and the manual was invaluable. Kala’s approach to HR is very practical and any company would benefit from their services. Kala still carries out work for PIBA on an on-going basis.

When Kala worked with us at Massey Bros. they displayed a wealth of knowledge in all areas of our business. They helped immensely during a crucial transitional phase in our company’s growth. They engaged with both staff and customers in a very professional and helpful manner and I would be pleased to recommend them as a valuable addition to any company’s staff.

Gillian worked with the ITC Group for many years initially as a Group HR Consultant in our own HR Consultancy business to SMEs the HR Department Ltd and in recent years as our in-house HR Consultant. She has been well regarded as someone who knows her subject and who has been a valuable resource to us both as we grew the business rapidly recruiting and developing appropriate HR Policies and in recent times carefully guiding us through the challenges of downsizing some parts of our business. Gillian remains an out-sourced HR Consultant to ITC Group because of her expertise and attentive service.

The HR Department has utilised Gillian’s services on a number of occasions and found her to be excellent in all aspects. Gillian provided expert advice and training to a number of our consultants in the HR area and we received very good feedback in terms of the materials prepared by Gillian, the presentation of the training and the level of expertise that Gillian has in the whole area. We would be happy to recommend her for any similar role and will be using Gillian again when the need arises.
