Client Feedback

"Our business has worked with Melanie for over two years now, throughout our working relationship I have found her to be professional and with an eye for attention to detail and quickly got to grips with our business through understanding the day to day issues we faced regarding HR. Melanie has reviewed and updated our HR systems and has assisted with training for our Management team to understand this most complicated area of business. Melanie has always been available when needed and is always precise and concise in her advisory capacity and if required will attend any meetings when necessary. I have no hesitation in recommending Melanie and can confirm she would be an asset for any business looking to update, put in place or support any HR requirement within any existing or new business."

Fleurie Nursery Ltd is an established horticultural company employing 40+ full time staff with additional seasonal staff during the busy season. We have been working with Tellwright Consulting for four years. As well as managing our regular HR requirements such as keeping our staff handbook, contracts and systems updated and compliant with employment law Mel has also helped us to develop our performance management systems. Mel takes the time to understand the business and the employees so that HR advice is tailored to meet the needs of the individual and particular circumstance. We have found that Tellwright consulting is flexible in the way they work with us. Costs are tailored according to the needs and size of the business such that when Fleurie purchased another company recently the TUPE project work was handled differently to the subsequent expansion of our HR requirements.

We had a new employee due to start and we wanted to ensure we were fully legal, compliant and covering ourselves if anything was to happen with this employee down the road. I called Mel and we discussed the role and within a few hours we had the offer letter and contract ready to send. Once I approved it Mel sent it directly to the new employee to sign. This was such an easy and professional experience for me and the new employee. I found Mel to be extremely knowledgeable and efficient. My previous contract had our commission structure within the contract. Mel pointed out that this would cost me a fortune if the employee went on long term sick or was off work for any other reason. Mel's help and advice was invaluable to our business and we look forward to working with her again in the very near future. I have no hesitation in recommending Mel and Tellwright Consulting to other BNI members.

Mel and her team are always at the end of the phone if we have any questions regarding staffing problems. Mel helped us with new contracts recently, and it was great to know I just needed to check and sign the document electronically and everything else was taken care of, even down to filing in the staff records. Mel’s knowledge is extensive and it great to know we can ask her all manner of questions and she will know what to do…. Thanks, Mel, for all your help with anything HR. I would not hesitate to recommend Tellwright Consulting for all your employment, recruitment and HR.
