Fixed Monthly Fee Packages Starting From £255

New to Specialised HR?

Our Fixed Fee Monthly Retainer packages are designed for organisations that are joining us as new clients and require their HR documentation, contracts and policies to be reviewed, updated or created. Existing clients who have already completed this work may find our Annual Update Service and Pay As You Go support more suitable.

PREMIUM

Fixed Monthly Fee Retainer

£795/mo

What’s Included:

✔ Includes all support from the Professional package

✔ Ongoing HR support whenever you need it, including expert advice, guidance on employee matters and preparation of HR documentation, all subject to our fair use policy.

✔ Strategic HR planning

✔ Regular HR audits

✔ Proactive compliance

✔ HR project support

Ideal For: Organisations with 41 – 75 employees seeking a dedicated HR partner

Retainer packages are subject to a 12-month minimum term. You may upgrade or downgrade your package once during the 12-month period to reflect changing support requirements.

Unused hours do not roll over to the following month. Any support required beyond your included monthly allowance will be charged at our standard hourly rate.

Please note: The Starter package (£255 per month) provides a light-touch HR service with up to one hour of support each month. It is designed for organisations that require basic HR foundations, such as essential policies, offer letters, contracts of employment, and new starter documentation.

As this package includes limited ongoing support, it is not intended for organisations requiring regular HR guidance, employee relations support, or ongoing HR management.

Our Essential, Professional and Premium Retainer Packages start from £345 per month and are designed for organisations seeking proactive, ongoing HR support and a long-term HR partnership.

What happens if we use up our retained hours and still need support?

f you exceed your included monthly allowance, any additional support will be charged at £80–£90 per hour (depending on the nature of the work) and billed in 5-minute increments.

Pay As You Go / Project Support / Investigation Services & Support

Annual Update Service – Keep Your Documentation Always Compliant

If you’ve had your HR policies, contracts of employment and offer letters reviewed or updated by us in the last 24 months, you’re eligible for our Annual Update Service.

Employment legislation changes regularly in the UK. Our Annual Update Service makes sure your HR documentation keeps pace without unexpected costs or the risk of becoming outdated.

What’s Included

✔ Twice-Yearly Updates – We’ll review and update all your HR policies, contracts of employment and formal offer letters every April and October.
✔ Responsive Legal Changes – If employment law changes between updates, we’ll update your documents to reflect the latest requirements.
✔ Compliance Assurance – Stay aligned with current UK employment law so you can manage people with confidence.
✔ Cost-Effective Protection – Avoid expensive one-off revision fees by keeping documents current as part of an ongoing service.

Why Choose the Annual Update Service?

Regular reviews and updates are essential to avoid gaps in compliance, reduce legal risk, and ensure your documentation reflects best practice and legislative changes.

Without an update service in place, out-of-date HR policies and contracts can leave you exposed — and may require comprehensive rewrites at significant cost. With our Annual Update Service, you receive peace of mind knowing your core HR documents are always up to date.

How It Works

1. We confirm your eligibility (document revision within last 24 months).
2. You sign up to the Annual Update Service.
3. Every April and October (or following any material employment law change), we send your updated HR policies, contracts of employment and offer letters.
4. You simply share the changes and updates, and we’ll keep you informed every step of the way.

Using Pay As You Go Alongside A Retainer

Clients on a monthly retainer can also use Pay-As-You-Go or project support for work that falls outside their package or exceeds their monthly hours. This ensures you receive uninterrupted support without the need to upgrade immediately.

Which Option Is Right For You?

• Pay As You Go is best for occasional or one-off HR support
• Project Support suits defined pieces of HR work with a clear outcome
• Monthly Retainers offer the best value for organisations requiring regular HR support
• Annual Update Plan perfect for clients that have already had their HR policies and documentation updated

Our investigations are conducted thoroughly, impartially, and in line with best practice and employment law requirements. They provide clear findings and recommendations, helping you resolve workplace issues fairly and efficiently.

When safeguarding concerns are raised, acting promptly and appropriately is essential. Our team handles these cases with the discretion, sensitivity and specialist expertise they require.
