What makes Altum HR different from other HR consultancies?
Unlike many competitors who offer a transactional service with standard self-help document suites, Altum HR provides a personalised, service-led approach. Every policy, procedure, or document we create is uniquely tailored to your business, ensuring compliance and aligning with your company’s vision. You’ll also liaise directly with highly qualified HR experts, not a call centre or junior staff.
Why are bespoke HR documents important for my business?
Every business is unique, with its own culture, objectives, and legal challenges. Generic templates fail to address the specific needs of your organisation. At Altum HR, we craft each document to fit your precise requirements, enabling robust operating procedures that protect and empower your business.
Do I have to wait for a problem to get support from Altum HR?
Absolutely not. At Altum HR, we believe in proactive, continuous engagement. We work alongside you to anticipate challenges, refine your processes, and ensure smooth operations. Our team is here to add value to your business every step of the way.
Will I be dealing with a call centre when I need help?
No. When you contact Altum HR, you’ll speak directly with an HR consultant. Our team comprises experts in employment law and HR strategy, ensuring you receive high-quality advice and solutions every time.
Can I access HR documents through a self-help portal?
Altum HR does things differently. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all templates, our HR documents are bespoke and built around your business. You’ll also find a selection of standard policies in our HR Resource Hub.
How does Altum HR help my business flourish?
Our service doesn’t stop at compliance. We design strong, robust operating procedures that align with your goals, improve employee relations, and enhance operational efficiency. We’re your strategic partner in achieving business success.
How qualified is the Altum HR team?
Our team comprises legally qualified Senior Consultants and HR professionals trained to Level 7 CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personnel Development), the highest level of HR training. This expertise allows us to provide not only compliance advice but also strategic HR solutions tailored to your business.
Why is it important to have a legally qualified HR team?
Employment law is complex and constantly evolving. Having a legally qualified HR team means you receive advice that is not only practical but also compliant with the latest regulations. This protects your business from costly disputes and ensures your HR policies and procedures are robust and defensible.
What is Level 7 CIPD, and why does it matter?
Level 7 CIPD is the highest professional qualification in HR, equivalent to a postgraduate-level degree. It ensures our team has the advanced knowledge and strategic insight needed to address complex HR and employment law issues. This qualification reflects our commitment to excellence and sets us apart from competitors with less qualified teams.
How does Altum HR ensure its recommendations are tailored to my business?
At Altum HR, we invest time in getting to know your business inside and out. We work directly with business owners to understand their goals, challenges, and company culture. This collaborative approach ensures that every change or recommendation is not only relevant but also agreed upon with you before implementation.
Are there any hidden fees or extra charges?
Transparency is one of our core values. With Altum HR, you receive clear, upfront pricing, and every service we provide is designed to offer maximum value to your business.
