Testimonials
Responsive, Reliable, and Professional HR Support
“Having been let down by another HR person, I referred Babette to a client, in respect of taking on a new employee and contracts of employment, handbooks etc.
Although Babette was about to go into a meeting, she spoke to the client that day and he sent me the following a couple of days later:
‘Thanks for passing on details for Babette Powell, she sorted the contract in 24hrs was great on the phone with her advice and absolutely brilliant to deal with.’
It is great to have been able to refer Babette and her professionalism has helped cement the relationship between us and our client.”
Adrian Evans – Evans & Evans – Accountants & Tax Specialists
Company Handbook
“Babette at BPHR has been of great value to our company.
We’ve had situations with lots of maternity leave and Babette ensured we were following the right processes, staying within the boundaries of the law and help keeping our team members happy.
Highly recommend.”

Seamless HR Solutions for Challenging Employee Issues
“Poor conduct and performance from one of our Tanker Drivers resulted in Hardy Drainage Limited requiring the services of Babette from BPHR.
Babette & I met initially in person to discuss the issues, I then followed up with documentation to support the allegations.
The process that Babette put in place for us was seamless. We are now in a position to conduct a disciplinary hearing and would have no hesitation in recommending Babette from BPHR for HR Consultancy work.”
Darren Dunnett, Hardy Drainage.

It was indeed a pleasure to work with Babette and will recommend her for future HR Consultancy work.”

Restructure and redundancies
“I worked with Babette for two years on various projects. One was to restructure the Site’s shift pattern change, and unfortunately on a Factory closure operation. Throughout the process, Babette was the utmost professional and treated every affected member of staff with respect and dignity.
I would highly recommend Babette on a consultation basis short- or long-term basis.”
John Tynan, General Manager
Recruitment
“I worked with Babette on a particularly challenging role for Statoil. It involved managing a process across time zones and needed a lot of support to come to a successful conclusion. At all-time Babette was both professional and friendly and ensured that all issues were resolved quickly.
Babette is a pleasure to work with and a real asset to Statoil”
Luke Ely
Employee Contract & Handbook
“BPHR have been absolutely brilliant, I was badly let down by an HR company who was supposed to draw up a contract and Handbook for my first employee. Babette was contacted and within 24 hours we had a contract and just as quick the handbook. Babette was really informative and helpful with how we structured both documents to suit my business and the new employee.
I would happily recommend BP HR Consultancy to anyone looking for HR solutions. Thank you again.”
Darren Hume, Tailor Made Mobility Ltd
Company Handbook
“Thanks to BPHR for their help with our company handbook, I won’t hesitate to recommend you and use you again.
You went outside your remit advising on the employment contract and you knew exactly how to structure the handbook when I didn’t have a clue.
You also were very good in reminding me to come back to you!”
Stephen Dickinson, Owner at Momentum Mortgages
HR Support
“Dan Thomas & Co are proud to say that they are growing and we recently went from three to four employees. With this in mind, I felt it was an appropriate time to employ the services of a HR consultant.
I reached out to Babette of BPHR consultancy who did indeed provide a bespoke, personal service in understanding the needs of my small business.
Babette was able to provide a quick, efficient overhaul on all of our existing staff contracts and provide a new template for our newest member of staff.
Babette understood that each and every persons role and pay structures were different as we have both full time and part time staff. The turnaround time was impressive and I now have the peace of mind that both my staff members and I are both compliant and protected.
I’d have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Babette at BPHR consultancy”
Dan Thomas, Director at Dan Thomas & Co
