Brands who

trust us.

Our Founder

The HR Impact was founded to provide a better kind of HR support. One that balances compliance with commercial reality and puts people at the centre without losing sight of business outcomes.

Meet Nicole Howe – Founder and Lead Consultant

Nicole did not build The HR Impact to be another HR consultancy.
She built it because she had seen, firsthand, what happens when businesses either over complicate HR or avoid it entirely.

HR that

supports people & strengthens businesses

You do not need more HR admin.
You need practical support that works.

That is the HR Impact.
