Only HR was founded by Margaret Hansen who has a Masters in Human Resources Management and over 30 years of experience working with some of the UK's most respected organisations — from international and boutique hotels to national retailers.
From start-ups to established businesses, our clients rely on us to handle their people challenges — professionally and effectively.
Margaret listened to our requirements and helped us put in place a tailored solution specific to our needs. We are growing and this will remove any issues in the future.
She really understands our business and how we work. She is, in effect, our own personnel department — but we only pay for it when we need it, making it very cost effective.
Everything is now straightforward — from advertising vacancies right through to making appointments. I would have no hesitation in recommending Only HR to anyone.
