About the Practice
Twenty years in HR, with a seat in it as well
PENRIGHT Consulting is the independent practice of a senior HR consultant with more than twenty years across the full employee lifecycle.
Fintech is where that mix earns its keep. The sector grows quickly, changes direction often and can feel frantic from the inside, so a headcount plan written once a year goes stale long before the next one. PENRIGHT runs workforce planning and organisational design the way your engineers run a release: a roadmap, named owners, timelines and objectives, revisited in short cycles. PRINCE2, Scrum Master and ITIL sit beside the CIPD Chartered Fellowship for exactly that reason.
Restructures, new team builds, redundancies, TUPE, job profiles, policies, leadership coaching and line management practice form the core. Employee relations, EDI, training and L&D, people operations and business partnering support it. The practice is based in Minehead and works across London and the South East, on site or remotely. Every engagement is run by the consultant you meet on the first call: pragmatic, candid when the news is unwelcome, and good company in a hard week.
How we work with every client
- 20+yearsExperience
- CIPDQualified
-
The senior person does the work
No account manager, and no graduate handed your restructure after the pitch. The consultant on the discovery call writes the plan, sits in the difficult meetings and answers your emails, usually the same day.
-
A fixed fee, agreed before anything starts
Each engagement is priced as a proposal with the deliverables written down up front. You know what you are getting, what it costs and what sits outside it, so the invoice matches the conversation.
-
Knows how tech teams really deliver
Squads, sprints, release cycles and the pull between product and platform are familiar ground. Org designs are built around how your engineers work day to day, rather than a textbook chart.
-
An NDA before the first document
Restructures and redundancy plans are sensitive long before anyone is told. A non-disclosure agreement is standard on every engagement, and nothing about your people leaves the room.
-
Reports your board will read to the end
Findings arrive in plain English, with the recommendation first and the evidence behind it. Where a plan will hurt, you hear that directly instead of finding it buried on page twelve.
-
Still on hand after go-live
Aftercare is part of the fee. When the new structure meets its first real quarter and questions surface, you have someone to call who already knows the design inside out.
A straightforward way to start working together
Take the people maturity check
Answer 8 to 10 short questions, each scored from 1 to 5. Your results come back as a radial chart: weak spots at the centre, strengths on the outer ring.
Talk it through on a discovery call
By video, phone or in person, we read your chart together and decide honestly whether you need outside support. If you do, a fixed-fee proposal follows with every deliverable named.
Build the roadmap, then run it
Once you sign off, the plan becomes a roadmap of timelines, owners and objectives, delivered in agile sprints and reviewed with you each cycle as the business moves.
