HR at the epicentre of an organisation

HR at the epicentre of an organisation

Human Resources,  more commonly referred to as ‘HR’, is at the very epicentre of any organisation – plying a key role in attracting, retaining, developing and motivating employees, as well acting as an intrinsic function which drives the culture, people strategy, performance and success of an organisation.

As more and more businesses within Yorkshire and Humber set their sights on expansion and growth, such topics are fast becoming ‘hot’ around the boardroom table, and we are already seeing an increase in demand for experts from businesses who want to ensure that their specific needs are taken into consideration.

And all such experts appointed to lead the charge are tasked with two key goals… finding the best employees, and retaining the best employees.

After all, without a core team of quality and effective staff it is impossible for a business to progress, regardless of where its ambitions lie. It will not be able to build a brand or deliver a customer experience that is reflective of its values.

Take for example a Yorkshire based telematics firm which recently appointed a human resources to take on the role of HR leader amidst a period of growth.

According to the business, the move sees their new recruit join the team at its Sheffield headquarters where she will be responsible for helping to devise HR strategies, developing the existing team’s leadership capabilities, and defining the firm’s culture; with ‘considered policies and HR processes’ of increasing importance as the company goes from strength to strength.

Such developments are indicative of why we place such high importance on our relationship with the CIPD, and why we continue to support local employment law seminars that are held for the benefit of local businesses.
