Anne Brennan, HR Business Consultant

Are you often facing the challenge of finding and retaining the best people to help your organisation flourish and grow?

Whether you are a large inward investor, a medium size local company or a small start - up, recruiting staff will be one of your major concerns.

Meet Anne, HR Business Consultant. With 20 plus years’ HR experience in the private sector, Anne offers pragmatic advice and practical support. Her knowledge of the local jobs market is second to none. She will use her wide range of networks and connections to provide creative solutions for your recruitment needs. Working with key partners this includes talent acquisition from school and college leavers and graduates through to experienced and senior leaders.

So what does Anne do for businesses? She can supply you with detailed benchmarking of salaries, terms and conditions and benefits to ensure that you are competitive in the marketplace. She’ll offer valuable insights into what does and doesn’t work locally and in the current climate. She’ll make sure you know where to advertise vacancies cost effectively (she set up our highly successful Sheffield City Region Facebook jobs’ page to match local employers and job seekers).

And if you find yourself needing to make staff redundant Anne is here to support you through the process and connect those staff with employers who have suitable vacancies to fill (something she’s been doing throughout the pandemic with fantastic results). This is known as our full funded redundancy support package.

Anne is also here to help with the retention and development of your staff and she will ensure that you are kept fully up to speed with everything available to you, both fully and part funded. Anne works very closely with key partners to access a workforce which can be trained to meet your precise business needs, and to support the ongoing development of those staff.

And if you need any more convincing, her track record is very good. Anne has worked with companies such as BSkyB, Fragomen LLP, XLN Telecom and Clipper Logistics to open and establish their business here in Sheffield and continues to work with them on an ongoing basis.
