Background

About Gemma Baxter

As an HR consultant, I give peace of mind to ambitious business owners who want to do the right thing by their people. I work with SMEs — entrepreneurs who care about their employees. You may have hired more people recently. In turn, your managers may want leadership training. When you have the best talent, you’ll want advice on keeping them engaged, motivated and happy. I founded Hive HR Solutions in 2017 for one simple reason: I love helping business owners. At first, it was just me, with lots of encouragement from my husband Kevin. Now, we’re an awesome team of 7 people who celebrate each and every client’s success. EXPERIENCE I’ve been in HR for 25 years. As a team, we have 70 years’ combined experience — and since 2017 we’ve given peace of mind to business owners in a whole variety of sectors. For me, outsourced HR is a trusted partnership built on honesty and respect. Think of us as an extension of your business. You get a talented team of HR experts, without having to provide desk space… or company perks. ABOUT YOU… AND HOW WE HELP You may be struggling to manage HR yourself, or your in-house HR team might need support. Either is fine. If you cherish your talented staff, we’ll love working with you. So what sets us apart? Everything we do at Hive HR (absolutely everything) is bespoke. Here are some examples of what we do: • Employment contracts — Appropriate to your company, no unnecessary waffle or legal jargon • Customised, jargon-free employee handbooks • Management training — We listen first, then design and deliver tailored training to fill your managers’ knowledge gaps • Compliance documentation • Employee relations — disciplinaries, investigations & appeals, grievances and so on • Recruitment administration • Restructuring and redundancy NOT SURE WHAT YOU NEED? If you’re not sure, don’t worry. You’ll get an HR health-check. To provide the right recommendations, we take time to understand your business and what’s important to you. Put simply, you’re in safe hands — and here’s the best thing: That stressful, constantly-changing employment legislation? You don’t have to worry any more because we’re on it. WHEN I’M NOT WORKING… I love shopping, binge-watching TV series, spending quality time with my husband and friends… and Coco and Magic (our cats) who make occasional guest appearances on Zoom calls.
