“Tenacious, driven, on the pulse and highly experienced with a broad knowledge base and a hunger to consistently drive and develop new ideas, positively impacting those around her and any business that she is involved in. Karen is a quick thinker and can handle a multitude of challenges with what appears to be real ease. She is a natural listener, understands situations from all angles, highly professional, straight-talking and will tell it as it is to further the cause and/or to move limiting blocks and obstacles. Karen is very loyal, with a deeply caring nature for all those she works with. I had immense fun working with Karen in what was a fast-paced, very challenging/demanding business. She really is one of a kind and I would have no hesitation in recommending Karen to anyone.”

“Karen is efficient, effective and an absolute pleasure to work with. Her vast amount of Employee Relations experience means she would be my ‘go to’ HR professional. When dealing with disciplinary and grievance hearings Karen always ensures a fair hearing for all whilst maintaining a good grasp of how to conduct difficult conversations. Redundancy consultations are handled efficiently, fairly and sensitively. Combining all this with a ninja like ability to recruit even the hardest to find candidates means I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”

“Karen is completely dedicated and professional. She was a tremendous help in keeping the whole team focused on delivery of a recruitment project, whilst being absolutely realistic about what was possible. Her advice and guidance on complex employment issues is always grounded in helping to achieve the outcomes that work for everyone”
