"Elinor is a visionary leader whose impact on our organization's People function has been nothing short of extraordinary. When Elinor joined our team, we were grappling with siloed operations and a lack of employee-centric focus. Elinor wasted no time in rolling out transformative initiatives that revolutionized our approach to talent management.
One of Elinor's standout achievements was the introduction of a comprehensive performance management framework tailored to our organization's unique needs. These initiatives not only enhanced employee engagement but also provided invaluable insights for strategic decision-making.
Under Elinor's guidance, we implemented robust processes and systems, including career development and learning paths for our leaders, empowering them with the tools and resources needed to excel in their roles and progress within the organization. Additionally, Elinor championed the implementation of goal-setting frameworks aligned with our company's strategy, vision, and mission, fostering a sense of purpose and direction among our team members.
Having had the pleasure of working with Elinor in the past, I knew first hand her ability to cultivate an environment where both the people function along with our employees can thrive. Her dedication to fostering a culture of growth and excellence is truly commendable.
Elinor leadership has not only transformed our People function but has also set a new standard of excellence that will continue to drive our organization's success for years to come. It is without hesitation that I offer my highest recommendation for Elinor's exceptional talents and contributions"

"Echo entirely your comments about Eli who has been fabulous. It’s invaluable to have flexible and local expertise to help us through. She has managed some of the heavy lifting and also helped me in ensuring I was well prep’d for conversations with the employee" - Andy Duckworth
"I've worked with Elinor for around 5 years as an outsourced HR professional, working across projects from managing complex employee relations, to training and development of our team's HR knowledge and what 'best practice' looks like.
I have always found Elinor an absolute pleasure to work with - she's the kind to weigh up any risk, and always give a balanced, consultative view, which I find extremely helpful. She talks to me in simple language I can understand, to help me make the right decisions and nothing is ever too much trouble.
The other thing I particularly appreciate in Elinor is her ability to quickly understand your business' culture and values, and what is important - so her advice is valuable, rather than jarring or at odds with what we believe.
Highly recommend working with Elinor if you need HR support"
"Eli has been a huge support working with us on a complex HR systems implementation project. She was able to collaborate with multiple stakeholders, both internally and externally to ensure that the project remained on track.
She was able to take the business requirements and using her technical and HR knowledge make recommendations and deliver system enhancements across the hire to retire workflows. Her support was first class and we are very grateful for her guidance".
"Elinor has been a great help over the last year or so, advising on numerous issues and queries we have had.
