Meet our newest full-time team member, Trinity who has joined Spire HR in 2021.
We are so excited to have her on board, and cannot wait to see what the new year will bring, now that our team has grown. So, over to Trinity to find out more about her.

Why are you passionate about HR?

I find it a very interesting field to work in, there is always something different happening.
What does a day in Spire HR look like for you?
A day at SpireHR for me consist of putting together contracts, checking right to work documents, sending out references. Along with assisting clients with any queries, updating policies and handbooks.

What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?

Currently trying to get back into the gym! I love going for meals out with my friends.

What is it about Spire HR, that made you want to go for this position?
It’s a great opportunity to expand my skills and knowledge with a well-respected company.

Everyone during the interview stages was so friendly which makes you feel a lot more at ease knowing what type of environment you are going into.

Your goals for 2022?

To gain my CIPD qualification, and for my personal goal to travel more.

What are you hoping to learn?

I’m hoping to expand my skills overall, I’m currently doing an apprenticeship course which is brilliant!

What would you say are your top strengths?

I always want to learn more and do as much as I can to get involved.

Your advice for someone who wants to start a career in HR?

Look into what courses are out there, there are a lot of websites to gather information from. Ask to shadow your HR Manager if you have one and ask to sit in on meetings if your employer allows you to.

As we had recently come up against some difficult staffing issues which we had not experienced before, Ellen Parkin at Spire HR was recommended to us by one of our business partners to guide and assist us with the complex HR legalities we needed to adhere to.

Ellen was very efficient and professional and gave us instant confidence that she would be able to competently provide the help we needed. Ellen was readily accessible via email or telephone throughout the whole process and gave us the vital lifeline we needed during a very emotive and stressful time. Spire HR realised that as an SME, we had to balance the commercial viability for HR consultancy with the expertise and guidance we needed and Ellen was open and honest from the outset, providing a cost-effective and professional service. I would therefore have no hesitation in recommending Spire HR to anyone.

 

We are too small to justify a full-time HR employee; yet we cannot afford to ‘get it wrong’ The excellent service offered by Spire HR Solutions is the perfect solution for us

 

AGP have used Spire HR Solutions Limited for numerous matters relating to HR issues for both ourselves and clients of the practice. I have always found them to be extremely knowledgeable and helpful and to be very responsive to our needs.

Spire is now the practice’s first point of contact for any HR issues we encounter and I would certainly recommend them to anyone in need of assistance with any HR matters.

 

Ellen has helped streamline procedures and provide greater controls through her extensive knowledge and professional dedication, which has enabled me to concentrate on my main objective, growing the business.

I would say ‘key’ to her service is the confidence she provides with the HR guidance, I know without doubt that when dealing with my employees I follow the correct procedure and staff feel confident that they have the right HR support. The guidance on our bonus structure and appraisal scheme is one of many examples in which Ellen’s guidance has been invaluable.

I have been pleased with work Ellen has done for us and would not hesitate to recommend her to others. She provides a high quality, professional service and is very responsive to the needs of a small, growing organisation.
