From the start, it was clear that Natalie has a clear, broad and in depth understanding of HR practices. She provided completely reliable and sound services in the standard areas. She demonstrated a real understanding of my business and the people within it, and how the combination of the two needed to work to meet the business needs….. I increasingly turn to her for use as a sounding board and general advice, and it is always delivered in a positive, down to earth manner that is extremely refreshing. Her judgement is exceptional and I have come to have a high degree of trust and respect for her.

Natalie is innovative, accurate and compassionate; having worked with Natalie on a couple of projects now I have been thankful of her professional approach which is not only reliable but highly effective. Her ability to discern the facts of the situation combined with her creative capacity provides solutions that are successful and in-keeping with her company name – Dynamic. On the human side Natalie shows good empathy which really allows her skills to be received with excellent communication skills that make an individual feel really valued.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Natalie upon a number of key HR challenges we faced as a business, from effective contracts to employee management, disciplinary advice and more. I’ve always found her to be truthful, honest and spot on with her advice. Very friendly and welcoming character and only wants what is best for you. I’d have no hesitation in recommending Natalie or her HR Services to anyone needing top quality advice.
Simon SteedManaging Director - Simon Antony Limited
Natalie provided excellent pro bono support to our social enterprise through Business in the Community. As a third sector organisation we have been without staff contracts for some years and tackling this is a task that never seems to make it to the top of the ‘to-do’ list. Natalie provided support both over the phone and face to face and has given us clear and constructive advice including links to up-to-date legislation; notes on our draft contract and simple actions to move us forward. I am now confident that we have the information required to put contracts in place very soon. I would have no hesitation in recommending Natalie to any company experiencing HR issues and her approachable, yet no-nonsense manner will ensure the job gets done

Natalie Lewis assisted me with a complicated disciplinary issue which involved managing disciplinary, grievance, sickness absence and working with me to assist my client with the internal HR proceedings. Natalie built up a good rapport with the client and managed the situation well internally for them.

I need HR for profitability
Everyone wants a profitable business and you know yours could be even more profitable but you have some barriers; perhaps staff take up so much of your time that you can’t work on the business? Maybe the market has plateaued and staff aren’t as motivated as they were once?
I have a solution – HR for Profit!
What can you help with?
Over the years of working with many small and medium businesses, I have developed a set of processes and systems which are proven to help increase the profitability of your business.
Society is changing, what people want from their work is changing – employees want interesting work that makes a difference and aligns with their personal sense of purpose/values.
They want leaders who care about them as an individual and they want the opportunity to learn and grow. The youngest of our working generation want experiences and they want to be inspired.
My HR for Profit processes have been built around the future of HR and business strategy – focusing on the human to human element, moving away from the old hierarchical structures to a more collaborative, inspiring culture which is more productive, flexible and profitable.
This may sound radical but it’s the future and there are many very successful businesses that have embraced these changes for the better.
As a business owner, you will have more time to work on your business rather than in the business, you’ll have empowered staff who are engaged and motivated to do their jobs and look to continuously improve. You’ll have faster, more efficient processes, less staff turnover and sickness absence and most important – your business will be more profitable.
If you’re thinking of selling your company and want to leverage a better price or you want to build a more robust and profitable ‘lifestyle’ business – I can definitely help you with my profitability processes.
How can you help?
We will start with setting the foundations including reviewing HR documentation, HR processes and your company values and culture. This may be a quick process if you’ve already go these things in place but it’s always good to ensure that they are fit for purpose and that your staff truly live, eat and breathe your company values.
Once the foundations are set, I’ll work with you to put in place a robust profitability strategy. Together, we’ll work on aligning your employee journey with your client journey making for a more invested workforce and satisfied customer base.
We’ll focus on performance, feedback and communication – empowering your teams to carry out their roles to the highest standards.
