What our employer clients say...

My business 'find' of the year

We first found Steve when we wanted to design a comprehensive staff handbook and new contracts for the whole team. He was amazing and gave us all the tools we needed to do it. I could never have done this without Steve's assistance. . He really is my go to for anything employment related.

You guided us through complicated and potentially shark infested waters. You were sympathetic to our lack of knowledge and extremely supportive. We can’t thank you enough.

Thank you for your support. Your knowledge, calmness, organisation, support and professionalism was exactly what I needed. Thank you. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to others that may benefit from your skills.

Thank you very much for all the support you provided earlier in the year, it was a huge help and I learnt a huge amount going through the process.

As a start-up navigating a difficult few years due to the pandemic, Steve at Our HR People has been invaluable. We have been working together for nearly two years, during a time of rapid expansion, in this time Steve has supported us with all our HR and legal needs. As our core team started to grow Steve quickly built the infrastructure required for us to confidently welcome employees. Of particular note was the attention Steve paid to crafting contracts and working practices. Steve is able to assimilate complex HR situations and help to explain and develop the necessary strategy we need to take to achieve them. Steve is a consummate professional with a reassuring presence and always has an encouraging and friendly demeanor. As well as his excellent legal and HR work Steve has also helped us with several high value B2B contracts.
