HR Consultant

Jackie Slocombe

I am very proud to have recently joined SYLO Beyond HR. as part of their HR Advisory Team.   

As an Associate Member of the CIPD, I have gained many years of experience working initially within the Legal sector before moving into the Hospitality sector.   Within the Hospitality sector, I have worked both operationally and in HR roles, with the past seven years working as the HR Manager alongside Raymond Blanc and his outstanding team at Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons. 

My priority has always been providing the best possible working environment for our teams, ensuring that their needs are valued and met, whilst maintaining business objectives.  As an HR Generalist, I am driven by enhancing Employee Relations and Wellbeing, whilst my Legal background enthuses me with a keen interest in policy and procedure.  

Q. What is the most dangerous thing you have ever done?

I am always a bit apprehensive when it comes to taking risks, but sometimes I surprise myself. Once I came across a trapeze and found that I was brave enough to give it a go.  It was short-lived, I was terrible at it, but it was extremely thrilling and a great deal of fun.   

Q. Who or what makes you laugh?

My family makes me laugh every single day and Elis James and John Robins.

  • “

    ​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.
