About us

Our team have experience at a whole range of leading international consultancies: Accenture, PwC and KPMG to name a few and most of us have also worked at the sharp end of business. Members of the team have held senior HR roles at the likes of  Accenture, Prudential and Tate & Lyle as well as a number of investment banks.

Founded in 2003, we regularly win business against the giants of the consulting world thanks to two things: our absolute focus on basing our advice on your strategic goals  and the depth and breadth of knowledge we bring to our specialist areas. Our consultants have direct practical experience of what works and what doesn’t  and we think what makes us different is that our advice is based on developing a detailed understanding of what makes your organisation unique coupled with our deep expertise and research based advice in talent strategy and HR.
