"We found ourselves faced with a difficult employment issue and a separate HR issue and concluded we needed a professional to help us through both of these. We are a small business with 10 staff and like so many similar businesses we only have limited inhouse knowledge and HR skills to help us through today’s complex employment legislation and people psychology.
We found Theresa through the web and at our initial interview were impressed with her range of knowledge of current employment law and also HR. She was able to relate actual situations similar to ours that she had dealt with that gave us confidence to proceed with her. She coached us through all processes. She joined meetings where we felt necessary and at our request she held individual meetings with all our staff and reported back. She was flexible, prompt in her feedback and looked at the business in a holistic way, even challenging us to write down our company values and communicate those to the staff. She involved herself only to the extent that we wanted and at no stage pushed to work outside her remit. We felt her charge out rate was very reasonable and the whole process ended up within our budget.

To conclude we were very pleased with the outcome. We were able to successfully resolve an issue with a problematic staff member and we have also enjoyed a significant improvement in our work culture and harmonious staff relationships. We now consider Theresa to be our HR consultant for any future requirements and would have no hesitation in recommending her to others".

"Once again Tudor Consulting have undertaken a superb job in recruiting two new staff members for us. We have found Theresa to be outstanding and thorough in all dealings we have had with her, offering a very professional service indeed. We will continue to use Tudor Consulting for all our future needs and highly recommend them to everyone."

"Theresa has been extremely helpful in aligning our team and staff structure with our company goals. Theresa is very approachable and offers some great advice with HR issues. I have no hesitation in recommending Theresa as an HR consultant."

"Theresa has done an awesome job of managing our HR and recruitment. She helped us define the skills we needed, found exactly the right people, interviewed and reference checked. She’s a complete professional and has helped our business grow – fast!"

"Theresa has been instrumental in the implementation of an HR framework which has included the introduction of KPIs aligned with the strategic direction of the business. She has provided hands-on coaching and assistance to the MD, ensuring that obligations and responsibilities are met and followed through. She assists the divisional managers in driving performance, ensuring correct processes are followed and various HR paperwork is documented. Theresa takes ownership of the HR function. She is our go-to person for any staffing issues and ensures matters are dealt with fairly, objectively, and correct legal processes are followed".

"Theresa began working with us during 2012 and continues to on an ad hoc basis, to develop and refine our HR Processes to ensure our business decisions and procedures are robust and legally compliant especially as we make business changes to remain financially competitive. She provides timely advice and guidance while providing an objective point of view. Theresa grasped a good understanding of our business and could see the big picture, while ensuring the details were not overlooked. Theresa balances a technical and ‘people’ perspective with a solid business understanding to ensure processes are followed that are advantageous to the bottom line".

"Since bringing Theresa on as an independent HR advisor, we have regained a huge amount of management time and focus. Theresa has helped setup and taken care of our employment policies, contracts, appraisals, job descriptions, recruitment processes and employee satisfaction programmes. With a small management team, this means that we are able to achieve things that we previously only thought was the domain of big companies".

"We have used Theresa as an outsourced HR Resource since 2004. Primarily our requirements are in managing our recruitment process. We put a lot of effort and care into recruitment and we consider Theresa to be a vital contributor to this critical area. Like many businesses we receive a lot of applicants either directly or through agencies and we rely on Theresa to manage the process. It’s necessary to have a strong appreciation of our needs and values and to exercise judgment. Theresa is very engaged and interested in what is successful and works with us to constantly refine our approach and experiment with new strategies. More recently Theresa has also contributed to managing our broader HR responsibilities including contractual and legal aspects and Health & Safety. She is our go to person when we need to understand our responsibilities and she proactively contributes with suggestions and ideas”.

“The outsource model works very well because we cannot justify a fulltime position and having Theresa means our staff are freed up for work. We consider Theresa to be a vital part of our team, she has made a valuable contribution to Sandfield and I recommend her to anyone who needs assistance with HR".

"Theresa has managed our staff recruitment programme since 2007 and we have been delighted with the results. The major benefits include freeing up team members time to focus on serving our clients, bringing a professional and rigorous approach to all aspects of our recruitment process and, most importantly, finding top quality people to join our team".

"The Whitehead Group is an organisation that represents either employers or employees in employment disputes, we have been operating this field in excess of 20 years.

We use Theresa Tudor to assist us with these matters and refer our clients onto her when they require human resources expertise. We would not do this unless we are absolute confidence in her ability and professional approach to these matters. Theresa has on numerous occasions proved herself to be very effective in finding solutions during meetings between the two hostile parties. This is a skill and attribute that not many people are competent at, however we can say that Theresa is outstanding in terms of her performance in the circumstances.

We have found Theresa to be reliable honest to always uphold her professional integrity. We have no hesitation in recommending Theresa or Tudor Consulting to any employer who may have human resource issues that need sorting out."
