Nationwide HR Consultants Based in Staffordshire, Supporting Businesses Across the UK
If your business is looking to grow and needs help with its HR, we’d love the opportunity to speak to you.
At Centric HR, we’ve built our reputation by helping organisations of all sizes, from start-ups with fewer than 10 employees to public sector bodies like the NHS, manage their people effectively while staying compliant with UK employment law.
Led by Sandra Berns, Chartered Fellow of the CIPD, our team brings decades of hands-on HR experience across private, public, and unionised sectors. We don’t believe in generic “one size fits all” advice. Instead, we take time to understand your culture, challenges, and goals before recommending practical solutions that work in the real world.
Our consultants have guided businesses through:
- Restructures and redundancy programmes – saving clients thousands in potential tribunal costs.
- Workforce efficiency projects – helping organisations identify savings while protecting employee wellbeing.
- People strategies for growth – from setting up contracts and policies for new ventures to designing reward and retention programmes for established SMEs.
Whether you need ad-hoc HR advice at an hourly rate, a bundle of hours, or a fixed monthly package, our flexible support adapts to your business needs. We’re proud that many clients describe us as an extension of their leadership team, trusted to resolve sensitive issues quickly and professionally.

Our Google Reviews
Centric HR also assisted us with the Kickstarter Scheme and we managed to secure an excellent candidate who supported Time Assist for over a year.
The team is always on hand and willing to help and give advice (no matter how irrelevant the questions might seem).
I have no hesitation in recommending Centric HR to anyone who needs ad hoc HR support (or on a monthly retainer for that matter).
Thank you!

What Our Clients Say
Sue Noyes – TASC The Ambulance Staff Charity
“Centric HR worked with the TASC team over a number of months. Centric worked professionally and put in place a number of policies and a staff handbook, at a particularly challenging time for the charity. They also provided excellent professional advice to myself as we worked through a sensitive issue for a member of staff – very wise counsel at that time was much appreciated.”
Alan Lakin – Regional Head of Audit in West Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust
“I have worked with Sandra for a number of years. She is a very professional and knowledgeable person, who is always prepared to go the extra mile. Whenever I have worked with her, her input has always been very valuable and well considered. She is always discrete and has considerable integrity.”
Michael – Engineer
“I would just like to pass on my thoughts regarding Helen, Amy and the team at Centric. They have been professional, informative and helpful at all times during the whole process of the restructure of my employer, but above all they have also been kind, caring and understanding to everybody’s different circumstances. They dealt with all my queries without any trouble and if ever there was a question they couldn’t answer they would get back to me as soon as they possibly could. I would like to personally thank them for all their help and would like to wish them all the best for the future. They are truly a credit to their profession.”
