A unique opportunity to be part of this recession‑proof and phenomenally profitable sector.
UK based Area Directors with Franchise HR Specialist Consultancy.
You have thought about going solo for a while now? Maybe the time is now. Running your own HR consultancy is rewarding, flexible, and empowering, and lets be honest, slightly scary if you haven’t done it before!
You are a seasoned HR Specialist or HR Director (or have worked at a similar level) and are considering a move from being employed to setting up an HR Consultancy. There could be an option you haven’t yet considered: a way of being in business for you‑self, but not by yourself – having Director‑level coaching and support to find clients and access to our comprehensive resources including our Marketing Agency content and HR and Training Course Resource Libraries, and much more. This really is a viable short‑cut to ensure your own HR consulting business grows quickly and sustainably, and you are able to add real value to the relationship you have with your clients.
We are a successful HR Consultancy and a Member of the BFA – the British Franchise Association. We have built a reputation for the delivery of professional services for over 25 years and have been offering national franchise opportunities to the right people with the right skills and experience since 2019. There is a way to be self‑employed, manage your work/life balance and short‑cut the long learning curve. By partnering with the Our HR People national brand, you can take control of your own future, own your financial efforts, and work with a team of people who are there to inspire and support you.
The offer
We offer experienced, CIPD‑qualified HR Professionals a unique opportunity to build their own businesses, supplying commercially sound, tailored HR advice to employers of all sizes, in all sectors. If you specialise in a particular sector or have a professional service background, that’s even better. You’ll need to be absolutely focused on building your business, by building your network, prioritising your clients’ needs and employing strong professional consulting skills.
We show you how our unique business model – built upon 25 years of experience of successfully providing strategic HR consulting, leadership development and OD to businesses of all sizes in almost every sector – works for both you and your clients. We will provide you with a proven and comprehensive 1‑2‑1 mentoring, coaching and support package that will propel you to a flourishing business. Our support continues on an ongoing basis for your new business. We have monthly team meetings, 1‑2‑1 business support, provide comprehensive blog and marketing collateral, business development, holiday cover – everything you will need to maximise your impact. You’re never on your own, and director‑level support is only a phone call away.
Business Development Opportunities
Through our network of referrers, we have found each of our 7 Area Directors their first client opportunity. We aim to do the same for you. Because of our reputation and BFA membership, prospective franchisees without personal funding will find banks are more likely to grant business funding. See: British Business Bank, Lloyds, HSBC.
In addition, in 2024 we launched iReport – a reporting mechanism designed to assist employers meet the duty to prevent sexual harassment. Our franchisees have a unique opportunity to find new clients and investigation work through this offering.
Our plans
Our expansion plans are modest – we are looking for only 2 or 3 new franchises each year and will max out at 12‑15. We left corporate life for a reason and we do not want to replicate that. We have kept barriers to entry deliberately low for the right people; your franchise business does require a value for money, up‑front investment, and you will need to bring all of your drive, professional skills and experience with you. We have built our brand reputation and we need to know you will do the same.
You are…
An experienced and qualified HR Professional, authorised to live and work in the UK, with the drive, commitment and passion to run your own successful HR/training consultancy. You want to take control of your own future, work/life balance and work with a team of people who are there to inspire and support you in whatever you need.
