I’ve been working in HR for 25 years, becoming MCIPD too many years ago to mention. Most of my experience is generalist, for SME’s, most recently in the construction supply chain. However I now spend most of my time conducting workplace investigations, for both public and private sector.

I’m known for my reasoning skills, the ability to see the bigger picture, and getting to the bottom of those workplace mysteries!

Most dangerous thing I’ve ever done?

Abseiled down Haytor Rock in Dartmoor – twice. It was a long time ago and there won’t be a 3rd time.

What makes me laugh?

My dog, my husband, my friends after a few drinks, and Michael Macintyre’s big show when they wake up celebrities in the middle of the night.

    Thanks to Jilli Broadhurst from SYLO | Beyond HR for visiting the Richardsons’ office last week for a CPD session with the team.

    She led the Richardsons team in a session that covered adapting their communications approach to have the best possible interactions with colleagues, peers and clients.

    The session also covered other key skills such as tactics for providing constructive feedback and effectively delegating.

    Here at Richardsons, we’re proud to be an experienced training firm – and an important part of that commitment is offering our team these kinds of opportunities to learn the skills they need to grow their careers and better support our clients.

    Thanks again to Jilli and SYLO HR!

    ​I found working with SYLO incredibly comfortable.  They helped me to define the real issues and then guided me through figuring out a solution. This resulted in a huge shift in the workload I was carrying to manageable levels, greater and welcomed empowerment for the talent in my team, and a manager (mine) who was fully up to speed on what was actually going on.

    We have been using Breathe over the last term to track our staff holidays. This is a great system as it highlights different cohorts of staff and when is free for others to book on the calendar. This has supported our ratio requirements and helped us to track holiday entitlements.

    We like the system so much that we have extended it to using the staffing schedules to log staff attendance and hours needed to be processed for payroll. Sharon has been so helpful in helping us set up different employees work patterns and it has been really effective for our nursery needs.

    As always, SYLO delivered a thoughtful and insightful session and I enjoyed hearing their thoughts on valuing difference in the workplace. It has helped me to be able to think about how I can encourage the people I work with to consider how effective their inclusive policies and practices are.
