Ten Reasons Why SME Principals Should Contract TimelessTime

The following outlines our key competitive advantages over others who might offer ‘HR’ services:

1. We’ve implemented practices and maximised competitive advantage when 'Head of HR' in on our past careers in six firms.  And we’ve managed four SMEs as director or managing director.  We therefore understand the issues SME principals face and can tailor advice and recommendations.
2. We’ve enjoyed the highest engagement by our staff throughout our HR and management careers and hence we know how to achieve this in other firms.
3. We have extensive UK and international experience in all continents and specifically in Europe, the Middle East and Far East, Africa, USA and the Caribbean.  We have been responsible for firms owned by foreign investors.  And we’ve run subsidiaries of UK firms abroad.
4. We are highly qualified academically at least to Masters level in business, psychology and in human resource management and have extensive post-graduate experience.  We have sound knowledge and the skills to solve any people-oriented business issue.
5. We have been accepted for election to Fellow of relevant management intuitions indicating that we have held posts of ‘superior responsibility’ (at board level) for at least ten years.
6. We fundamentally believe that a firm’s competitive advantage is achieved through its people and that HR practices materially influence the performance of a firm.  We work to maximise competitive advantage in our clients.
7. Our firm is certified to ISO9001, the international quality standard.  SME principals can be assured that all our work is of high quality.
8. We are skilled consultants able to solve problems rather than just former HR professionals able to replicate HR practices from one firm to another. There is no ‘best practice’ HR, only HR practice optimally tailored to the firm.  It takes a consultant to do that tailoring.
9. We have a diverse experience across public and private sectors with unique competence in technology and the management of the technology firm. 
10. We have worked with staff at all management levels from stores assistant in an SME to Minister in government and CEO in business.  And we’ve consulted in all domains including sales, operations and R&D.
