HR consulting services have traditionally focused on documentation, legal compliance, and performance management. Those areas still matter, but today, effective HR consulting goes further. Strategic HR support helps employers build capability, prevent risk, and create systems that allow their business and people to grow together.
Our partners at ConsultingHQ deliver a full suite of HR consulting services, covering both the day-to-day support employers need and the long-term strategic planning that helps a business thrive.
- HR advice: Practical guidance on employee retention, risk management, complex performance issues, dismissal processes, and everyday people challenges.
- HR compliance: Support with restructuring and redundancy, health and safety obligations, compliant HR documentation, leave and payroll issues, and meeting employment law requirements.
- Performance management: Set clear expectations and strengthen performance with structured 90-day trial processes, disciplinary pathways, annual reviews, development plans, and leadership support.
- Workplace wellbeing: Build a healthier culture with wellbeing policies, engagement initiatives, and confidential employee surveys.

How to get started with HR consulting
A great place to begin is ConsultingHQ’s free HR audit, a quick and confidential way to understand your current HR foundations. This assessment highlights what’s working well, where the risks are, and which HR consulting services will deliver the biggest impact.
What is strategic HR consulting?
Strategic HR consulting aligns your people strategy with your business strategy. It’s about building the right structure, processes, and capability to support long-term growth.
Your workforce is one of your biggest investments. Strategic HR helps you get the best from that investment by creating clarity, consistency, and a culture where people can do their best work.
ConsultingHQ uses a proven methodology to ensure you have the right HR foundations in place. From there, we optimise performance processes and support leaders to create a culture where people feel supported, and businesses can grow with confidence.

“Sometimes we get so busy with the day to day running of our businesses that we lost sight of the importance of the HR function.
We had People Inc Group undertake a full HR Review of our business and then worked with us to develop a long-term strategy and action plan. The result of the review gave us a clear vision of where we want to be in 12 – 24 months and how to get there.
And it doesn’t end there, their support is ongoing, they hold us accountable and celebrate our successes as well.”
