Testimonials
"As part of our programme to expand Clarke Controls business we needed to recruit a new sales team. We felt that handling the recruitment process internally wasn’t the right way to go and that using a recruitment consultancy would not only be very expensive, it would mean that we would need to manage the process internally. Hayton Consultancy was recommended to us and, following a detailed discussion of our requirements, they took over the recruitment process which included the job specifications, advertising, candidate selection and managing the interviewing process. The project was executed quickly, efficiently and at reasonable price, ensuring we found the right people for our new sales team." Andrew Collier, Business Consultant, Clarke Controls
“We were introduced to Hayton Consultancy from another business that was very complimentary on the good service they had provided. When we met with the team, we could see they were very professional, they definitely knew what they were talking about and filled us with confidence they could do the job. They took ownership and removed a problem with minimal input required from me – absolutely key in my book. We would recommend Hayton Consultancy to any business as a HR provider that Just Get’s it!” Jon Woodall, Director, Space 48
"We have used the services of the Hayton Consultancy for the last six months and they have become a valuable extension to our company, providing up to date employment law advice. In the time that we have been working alongside Hayton Consultancy, they have prepared all of our employment law documentation on our behalf, which we have complete confidence in using, due to their knowledge and expertise within this field. We value our employees and want them to feel that everything we do, we do so in their interests. The Hayton Consultancy has provided the documentation and advice to help us do this better than we ever could have done without them. I personally can not recommend both Kim and Kerry enough, they are both very approachable, knowledgeable and always on hand, which is particularly helpful in an urgent situation. Now that we have a good handle on the majority of employment law aspects due to their help, the Hayton Consultancy have suggested that we now look to train new man managers within our company, providing them with the training and advice to help them make this transition easier. This is another aspect to the Hayton Consultancy and illustrates how they are not one dimensional company and are always “thinking outside of the box” Danielle Abbott, Office Manager Tonrose Ltd

Her ability to take the sting out of the situation and to bring it to a swift and satisfactory conclusion has saved a lot of heartache and time.Hayton Consultancy is very much part of the Helix team."

“Keeping your senior sales people motivated at the highest level can be time consuming and challenging even for the best managers. Their single minded drive and determination can leave a wake behind them that can be destructive to other team members.I had heard about Kim Haytons unique one to one coaching and mentoring sessions and employed her to help our best sales person deal more effectively with their colleagues.
