What our CLIENTS think

As an already small team we needed to ensure that the resources for our business weren’t reduced by avoidable HR issues. Having an external team to assist with managing our HR needs compliantly and correctly really gave us peace of mind. Safe in the knowledge that we were protecting the rights of both employer and employee. Having a structure and procedure in place ensures that everyone is singing from the same hymn sheet. I would certainly recommend Norton Loxley. The sensitivity and speed with which they respond to fast paced HR developments has been invaluable to us.

Director, Greenwood Solicitors
Knaresborough

Really professional experience. We needed some managerial staff hiring on short notice and we were given a shortlist of candidates with interviews lined up within the week.

The staff member we hired came with a wealth of experience and the vetting process was obviously very thorough.

Fantastic service! The team were able to help us very quickly on a short turnaround project. Their onboarding process was very simple, and they actioned everything quickly. Will definitely continue to work with Norton Loxley.
Director, Up the Anti

A great HR and Recruitment specialist. They are very responsive, friendly and knowledgable and gave us some great advice along with reviewing our recent policies and advising on the legal changes. Would highly recommend.
Operations Director, One Degree North
Leeds
After an initial meeting to discuss the job description, expectations and availability, suitable candidates were then put forward for consideration and interviews were set up. We have now employed a full time employee who has just completed her first week. Throughout the recruitment process, contact was frequent and I was kept updated. I will be back in contact again when a new position(s) come up. Thanks for your help.
