HR done properly, without becoming the HR expert

Your policies say what needs to happen. Your expert helps you apply them. Employment Hero puts them into practice.

Policies and compliance

HR foundations tailored to your business, always current.

  • A suite of HR policies, guides and templates built to reflect your policies and ways of working, nothing generic.
  • Covers everything from absence and disciplinary processes to family leave.
  • Every policy approved by an employment barrister and reviewed by CIPD professionals.
  • Kept up to date as relevant UK employment law changes, and we tell you when something changes.

Expert support

A dedicated HR expert who knows your business.

  • Unlimited first-line HR advice from a dedicated, UK-based, CIPD-qualified expert.
  • Advice that retains your context, so you never start from scratch.
  • Reach them through calls, email and the portal.
  • A monthly strategy call that looks ahead, identifies priorities and brings proactive insight.

People operations

Puts it all into practice, day to day.

  • Employment Hero included, taking your policies and advice into everyday people work.
  • Onboarding, employee records, leave and policy acknowledgements in one place.
  • Workflows for performance, training and renewals.
  • Prompts that help managers handle routine tasks, so less lands back on you.

The right level of HR support. Without needing an HR department.

As your team grows, people questions get more complicated. Employment law changes. Someone needs to handle absence, performance, policies and difficult conversations. And too often, it all lands with the person who is already running the business.

Hiring a full-time HR professional may be more than you need. Templates alone won’t tell you how to handle a real situation. And a helpline that starts from scratch every time can leave you explaining the business before you can get an answer.

You don’t need to become the HR expert. You need the right support around you.

Grow™ gives you the policies, expert advice and practical systems to keep the people side moving, with support that knows your context and grows with your business.

Who is Grow™ for?

Grow™ is for businesses where the people side has landed with someone who isn’t an HR professional, whether you’re a team of five or considerably further on. The trigger is the level of support you need, not how many people you employ.

Sound familiar?

  • Employment law keeps changing and nobody is keeping up with what matters.
  • HR has landed with someone without an HR background.
  • People questions are taking time away from running the business.
  • People processes are manual, inconsistent or living in spreadsheets.
  • You want ongoing HR support without building an HR team.
  • When a people issue comes up, you want advice from someone who already knows the business.

Not another HR helpline. Not another folder of templates.

HR support can look similar on paper. The difference is what happens when you need to use it in the middle of running your business.

A long contract that locks you in, even when your needs change.

A three-month initial commitment, then rolling monthly, so you can reassess as the business evolves.

Generic advice that doesn’t account for your team, history or working practices.

A dedicated HR expert who gets to know your business and gives advice in context.

A phone line where you may have to explain the situation and business from the beginning each time.

A continuing relationship with an expert familiar with your business and its people.

Policies and templates that sit in a folder, leaving you to work out how to apply them.

Policies tailored to your business, expert guidance on applying them and Employment Hero workflows to put routine processes into practice.

Reactive answers when something goes wrong, with little help spotting patterns early.

A monthly strategy call and proactive insight to help you identify people priorities before they become bigger distractions.

From £295 per month

Three-month commitment, then rolling monthly.

It combines tailored and maintained HR policies, a dedicated HR expert, monthly strategic guidance and Employment Hero to help put routine people processes into practice.

How much does Grow™ cost?

What’s included in Grow™?

Grow™ includes tailored HR policies, guides and templates; a dedicated UK-based, CIPD-qualified HR expert; advice by phone, email or portal; a monthly strategy call; relevant policy updates as UK employment law changes; and Employment Hero for people records and workflows.

Do I get a dedicated HR adviser?

Yes. You have a dedicated HR expert who gets to know your business, your people and what you already have in place, so advice can take your context into account rather than starting from scratch each time.

Is Grow™ just HR software or a set of templates?

No. Employment Hero supports the workflows and records, and your policies give people guidance to follow. Grow™ also includes a dedicated HR expert who helps you apply that guidance and a monthly strategy call to keep people priorities connected to business needs.

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

Grow™ has a three-month initial commitment, then rolls monthly. This gives you ongoing support without a multi-year commitment.

Can Grow™ help when an employee issue comes up?

Your dedicated HR expert can provide practical guidance on people issues within the scope of Grow™. Complex matters may require a separately scoped intervention, depending on the circumstances.

What is Employment Hero used for?

Employment Hero is the people-system layer within Grow™. It helps keep employee records and policy acknowledgements in one place and supports workflows such as onboarding, leave and absence, performance and training. The exact features available depend on the agreed setup.

The right level of HR support for where your business is now and where it’s going.

Keep your people foundations current, get advice from someone who knows your business and put the everyday processes in place, without becoming the HR expert yourself.

From £295 per month. Three-month commitment, then rolling monthly.

When culture works, everyone wins.
