Self Employed Area Directors

A unique opportunity to be part of this recession-proof and phenomenally profitable sector.

UK based Self-Employed Area Director with Franchise HR Specialist Consultancy

Running your own HR consultancy is rewarding, flexible, and empowering, and lets be honest, slightly scary if you\’ve not done it before! You are a seasoned HR Specialist or HR Director or has worked at a similar level and are considering a move from being employed to setting up an HR Consultancy. There could be an option you haven\’t yet considered; a way of being self-employed, but also having Director level coaching and support and access to our comprehensive resources including our Marketing Agency content and HR and Training Course Resource Libraries – and much much more. This really is a viable short-cut to ensure your own HR consulting business grows quickly and sustainably, and you are able to add real value to the relationship you have with your clients.

Our plans

Our expansion plans are modest – we are looking for only 2 or 3 new franchises each year and we\’ll max out at 12 – 15. We all left corporate life for a reason and we certainly do not want to replicate that!

We\’ve spent years building our brand reputation and we need to know you\’ll do the same.

The HR consulting market opportunity is HUGE!
