Would you like to run your own HR consultancy?

Are you a senior HR professional frustrated in your current role? Are you tired of the internal politics or dealing with the same problems repeatedly? Perhaps you’re fed up missing out on family life or simply craving more flexibility and the ability to choose when and how you work? A face2faceHR franchise offers a solution to all of the above, and more.

We understand starting your own consultancy can be daunting. If the idea of ‘going it alone’ just feels too overwhelming, a franchise provides the opportunity to run your own business autonomously, but with all the tools, help and support you need to be successful, whilst minimising the risks involved in starting your business entirely from scratch.

We appreciate that everyone has unique ambitions and we want to help you achieve yours, and get the freedom and independence you’re looking for, whilst being able to make a real impact for your clients.

Who are we looking for?

Our partners are our brand so we only choose the highest calibre HR professionals to ensure we continually deliver the exceptional standards of professionalism and quality we promise all our clients. Here are just some of the attributes we are looking for:

  • You should have several years’ general HR experience advising at a senior level, some of which must have been in the private sector.
  • Whilst experience is important, your personal qualities actually matter even more, so you need to have a down-to-earth, friendly and engaging manner, and prioritise a pragmatic and commercial approach to HR for small businesses.
  • You should ideally be MCIPD qualified although we may consider applications from those with significant and wide-ranging HR experience and preferably a commitment to pursuing CIPD accreditation.
  • Whilst we encourage flexibility and prioritise a good work-life balance, you will need to make sure you are available for clients and business development for a reasonable amount of the normal working week, probably not less than 25 hours. You’ll also need to be able to drive or travel widely and easily within your local area.
If you’re determined, ambitious and love the sense of fulfilling your potential then you could be the right fit for us. For a more extensive list of the qualifications, skills and experience we are looking for, download our prospectus here.

Frequently asked questions . . .

We do have leads coming in centrally, which will be referred to you if you are the nearest consultant, however this will not be your main source of clients. What we will do is tell you exactly what you need to do (and exactly how to do it) in order to get clients, and provide you with all the tools and training you need to do that successfully.
No, our consultants all own their own businesses, so while they operate within our brand and offering our products and services, they don’t work for us, they work for themselves and maintain control of their own consultancy.
It means your marketing activities are restricted to the defined area in question. So for example networking events outside your territory are restricted. But there is no restriction on where your clients are located. If a client comes to you from outside your territory, that’s your lead, and there is no need to hand it over to another consultant, or pay a percentage, or any similar restrictions.
Yes that’s absolutely fine, and we encourage it. However we do ask that you don’t attempt to contact them directly. They are busy people with clients to work for, and although they’re always happy to oblige, talking to potential franchise partners is a favour they do us. For that reason we think it’s better if the request to speak to you comes from us and can therefore be arranged to suit them.
