At Centric HR we have broad experience and exposure of HR and employment law services working for employment solicitors and their clients dealing with a wide range of workforce issues.

Our core team of HR consultants and associates all have director level or senior manager experience. They are very competent dealing with conflict, complex casework and exceptionally challenging projects.

We have made a name for ourselves in the HR employment law consultants marketplace through managing and delivering on consultancy projects due to the fact we are tried and tested professionals and cover the vast people agenda from attraction and recruitment right through to exit and retirement, and literally everything in between.

In recent years we have been providing more HR employment law support for solicitors and other clients. We have therefore realised there is a natural partnership here.  Whilst employment solicitors provide the legal advice to their clients, very often their clients do not have the capacity, expertise or skills within their existing workforce to implement and action the advice.  That’s where Centric HR come into their own when it comes to specialist HR employment law services. We offer professional HR practitioner services at a senior level for all types of organisations. We are adept in matching the skills, expertise and industry experience of our associates to ensure that your clients get the very best people to undertake their projects.

Organisational Learning - Embedding Best Practice

Often, following a complex case, an organisation will identify key learning and actions in order to avoid reoccurrence of a situation, to correct poor practice or to simply improve their workforce processes and employee experience to become an ‘Employer of Choice’ for the future.

Centric HR have the relative experience to understand organisational learning and can assist employment solicitors and other clients in developing and implementing key projects as part of their learning.  This can include, organisational design and job evaluation, employee engagement projects to identify key areas of improvement or generally developing improved fail-safe processes for their own internal HR teams and line managers to follow.
