HR support that feels like part of your team not an outside vendor.

I started Inspired Works HR Business Solutions because I saw too many small businesses and startups trying to navigate HR alone by juggling hiring, compliance, and people problems on top of everything else it takes to run a company. HR often gets pushed to the back burner until something urgent forces it to the front, and by then, it's usually more stressful (and costly) than it needed to be.

 

I believe it doesn't have to be that way.

 

As a Strategic HR Business Partner (CPHR) with an MSc in HR Management & Development, I've spent my career partnering with senior leaders to align people strategies with business objectives, the same strategic thinking I now bring directly to small businesses and startups. My mission is simple: to give growing businesses access to the same level of strategic HR support that larger companies take for granted, without the overhead of building an internal HR department from scratch. Whether you're hiring your first employee or scaling past fifty, I'm here to build the systems, policies, and people strategies that let you focus on what you do best.

What I Offer

I provide full-service HR partnership through three tier selection of Essential, Professional and Strategic HR services, not just one-off advice or a policy template and a handshake. My expertise spans employee relations, performance management, and total rewards, with research-backed knowledge in compensation strategy and its impact on motivation and retention. From day-to-day HR support and compliance to long-term workforce planning, I act as an extension of your team. As your business grows, my support grows with you.

Why Small Businesses & Startups Choose to Work With Me

I get it, when you're building something from the ground up, you need a partner who understands the pace, the budget constraints, and the unique challenges that come with growing a lean team. I bring the same strategic rigor used by senior HR leaders in larger organizations, translated into practical, right-sized solutions for growing businesses. And because it's just me, you always know exactly who you're working with: no handoffs, no account managers, no runaround.

My Approach

I lead with people, not paperwork. Good HR isn't just about staying compliant, it's about building a workplace where people want to stay, grow, and do great work. Backed by research and real-world experience, I help you create HR strategies that don't just check boxes, but actually move the needle on engagement, retention, and business performance.
