I help HR leaders and managers use AI to improve how they handle employee relations and people decisions.

I help HR leaders make better people decisions using AI.
This is about bringing structure, clarity and consistency to employee relations. Whether you’re preparing for a disciplinary, handling a grievance or navigating a performance issue, AI can support better thinking before decisions are made. The focus is simple. Improve judgement. Reduce risk. Handle situations earlier and with more confidence.

I provide structured ER support across performance, conduct, grievance, absence, redundancy, TUPE and disciplinary matters. I work alongside internal HR teams where they exist, and act as external ER support for organisations without in-house capability.
Managers are supported to prepare for key conversations, clarify process stages and ensure decisions are proportionate and defensible. Cases are reviewed for consistency and procedural integrity before action is taken.
Alongside case support, I strengthen management capability through targeted one-to-one work with developing managers and senior leaders handling sensitive situations.
Where organisations are exploring AI in HR, I also provide practical guidance and training to help leaders understand how AI tools can support preparation, documentation and organisational insight while maintaining strong human judgement.
I also work directly with individuals navigating workplace change or responsibility. This includes managers developing confidence, professionals who have survived redundancy and are recalibrating their direction, and individuals whose judgement or stability has been affected by organisational change.
Support is structured, practical and work-focused. It is time-bound and designed to restore clarity, strengthen decision-making and rebuild confidence. For HR professionals and managers interested in the future of HR capability, this can also include guidance on using AI tools responsibly to support leadership and workplace decision-making.
Feedback, exits or complaints suggest deeper themes that are not being addressed early enough
