Kirsty Duck – Chippenham

Small businesses are what Kirsty knows and loves – she has spent much of her working life in small businesses, she understands them and the numerous transitions they go through as they grow. She loves the fact that impact of decisions and communication is immediate, and that decisions are (mostly) approached with a balance of pragmatism and love.

Her goal is to help create working environments where people want to come to work and business owners are proud of what they have created.

Kirsty has (fortunately for us) got over her phase of jumping off things – including a bungee jump and canyon swing in New Zealand, a sky dive near Swindon and abseiling down the Tower Block at Gloucester Royal Hospital. These days she’s more likely to be laughing at her improv group doing spontaneous drama work, doing life drawing or motivating herself with chocolate cake.

FREE HRCheckup

Not sure if your policies and procedures are up to date? Our HRCheckup service is for small and medium-sized businesses and is free to those without in-house HR support.

We’ll review all your current HR policies and procedures, provide a full written report and then discuss where your current documentation should be modified and suggest additional policies to ensure you are meeting your legal obligations at the very least, but also help you understand and address any HR vulnerabilities.

FACEit HR support service

FACEit is our annual retained service, providing peace of mind and unlimited access to expert advice and support from a named consultant who will be with you from day one and throughout the length of your agreement. FACEit is provided on a per employee, per month fee structure, which makes it very affordable to even very small employers.

Learn more about our FACEit service or download the FACEit brochure here:

Ad hoc and projects

If FACEit isn’t what you need immediately but you have an urgent HR concern, we can deliver advice via our ad hoc service. Even if you’re not sure you have an issue or are worried something could develop into a problem, we can advise on any number of concerns that come with being an employer. You’ll have access to a named consultant and advice is charged at the consultant’s standard hourly rate.

We also offer a full consultancy service on a range of employment matters from undertaking a TUPE transfer to implementing an employee benefits package. This service can also be provided on an ad hoc basis but for more specific, time-dependant activities, a project-based quote will be prepared by a named consultant.

Check our ad hoc and projects page for more information on all things people management related:

Fixed fee packages

If you’re looking to control your costs and don’t want the worry of your bill going up every time you have a query, you could take advantage of one of our fixed fee packages.

Our FACEforward package provides a comprehensive HR audit for small and medium-sized businesses, aligning HR strategies with broader business objectives. We thoroughly assess current HR procedures to enhance business goals and engage with your workforce to understand organisational culture and employee sentiment.

Our first employee package is for new employers to ensure they have all the basics in place for the new staff member.

Our redundancy package is for small business owners needing to make fewer than 20 redundancies.

Visit our fixed fee package page for more information on all of the above.

Kirsty has been supporting us for the last year with HR services, from everyday needs, a project to update our handbook and policies and providing training courses to our team. She is friendly and helpful, always responds to our queries with straightforward advice rather than HR jargon. I would definitely recommend Kirsty!"

Vicki Skelsey

I approached Kirsty to assist me with the legalities and processes around redundancy. She spent time understanding exactly what was happening in the business and gave measured and practical advise on how to tackle such an unfortunate situation. Throughout, she was empathetic and credible, and gave me the confidence to know that everyone was treated fairly and as kindly as possible. Great value for money, thanks Kirsty."

Sue Waugh

Kirsty was recommended to us and we are delighted to be working with her. She makes the complexities of HR and associated legislation accessible, relevant and interesting. She is great to work with, always so friendly, quick to respond, practical and super helpful. Working with Kirsty has seen us able to implement and enact some really key, yet simple changes to how we run our organisation and we really value our relationship with her."
