Who we work with
Growing Businesses
When they first come to us, many clients don't have any in-house HR support and may not be in a position to justify this.
Since they've grown, however, they've recognised that they need help to ensure their employment practices are compliant. They want to do the right thing. They want to work on becoming the best employer they can be. What that looks like will vary depending on a number of factors - budget, time, industry, sector etc.
The one thing that we assure our clients, is that if they're open to working with Mustard, they can be sure they are on the right path to creating an organisation to be proud of.
Established People Teams
Other clients already have their own HR function but require independent or specialist support.
Having an additional pair of hands (or two) when needed can be a relief for HR Practitioners, particularly those in stand-alone roles, who often find themselves getting bogged down with case management or trying to be all things to all people.
Using a trusted consultant for specialist support, or as cover for absence in the team, helps free up their time for value-added activities, while keeping the people elements of the organisation running smoothly.
