Hillside People
Pragmatic HR support. A fresh perspective when you need one.
I work with organisations navigating growth, change and complex people challenges, bringing senior HR experience, an independent perspective and practical support that works in the real world.
From a specific project or piece of strategic work to additional senior-level capacity when things get busy or complicated, I can step in where I’m needed and step back when I’m not.
Where I can help
I work across the breadth of people and HR, but I’m particularly useful when something needs to change, be untangled or simply get done.
Change & transformation
Organisational change, integration, restructuring and the people side of business transformation.
People strategy & infrastructure
People strategy, organisation design, reward, performance, HR processes and systems, creating practical foundations that support the business as it grows.
Senior HR support & projects
Additional senior HR capacity, complex projects and specialist pieces of work where an experienced pair of hands can make a difference.
Experienced. Independent. Straightforward.
I’ve spent more than 15 years working with businesses and leadership teams, both in-house and as a consultant. I understand the realities behind the theory … the competing priorities, imperfect information, difficult decisions and the need to keep things moving.
My approach is pragmatic and collaborative. I’ll ask questions, challenge where it’s useful and bring a different perspective, but I’m equally comfortable rolling up my sleeves and getting the work done.
No off-the-shelf solutions. No unnecessary complexity. Just thoughtful, experienced support shaped around what your organisation actually needs.
What clients say…
Over the years, I’ve worked with organisations ranging from early stage start-ups to more complex international companies, across biotech, life sciences and other sectors.
“We now realise how important it is to have top class HR partners to help us manage people challenges professionally while preserving the human touch…”
“Jeanie did a magnificent job of running a large-scale complex compensation review project … what she produced was both strategically and operationally at the top tier.”
