HR for Sports Associations and NGOs

For almost 20 years Russell HR Consulting has provided HR support to a number of sports associations, national governing bodies and associated businesses across the UK. We take time to understand our client’s work environment so we can ensure that our human resources advice is properly tailored to meet the needs of the business.

England Hockey’s HR Manager, Michele Townsend, describes working with us:

Circumstances can change depending on the funding received often meaning we assist the sports association with a reorganisation, usually resulting in recruitment, redundancies and the use of settlement agreements. We have also dealt with safeguarding issues, flexible working, a particularly challenging return from maternity leave, and the discreet but rapid redeployment of key players.

We work closely with internal HR professionals as well as CEOs and operations managers. Our retained HR service gives our clients a fixed fee plan which means you get HR support from people who know how to get their teeth in your business, and give proactive and robust advice. The contents of each retained service are tailored to meet the individual organisation’s needs.

For smaller organisations we have developed a mini-HR product, Affordable HR service for SMEs.

Testimonials

Kate & her colleagues have provided HR support on a range of matters over the last few years. The sort of things I’ve asked for help with include dealing with poor performance, stress, apprentices, sickness, the sad death of an employee and an outbreak of strong political views in the workplace. Whatever I’ve asked for help Kate has always advised me quickly, giving me options and explaining why they are recommending the route they have. She and her team make sure that I understand the advice so I can apply it properly. They take a genuine interest in my business, and are so sensible and practical. Kate’s built a great team that don’t just give flip answers - they really think about the right solutions for us. I wish more businesses gave such good service. Kate and co are a real pleasure to work with.
