HR Consultants that deliver straightforward advice and support
Skildare helps you bring out the best in your people so you can bring out the best in your business.
When you’re in business, there’s so much to do and there are never enough hours in the day. For every item ticked off your to-do list, another two are added. It’s little wonder that many business owners, like you, can’t find the time to set up and manage their human resources.
As business owners and experienced HR consultants, we get it. HR can be overwhelming and confusing. What if we told you there’s another way? At Skildare, we won’t bamboozle you with HR jargon, confuse you with complex strategies or hand you over to outsourced HR consultants that don’t understand your business or your people. We won’t even suggest a solution until we know you better.
Because we have in-house HR consultants you’ll have access to an experienced, multi-skilled team pooling its talent to help you get the best out of your people and your business.

Right from the start, you’ll be talking to the best in the business. But don’t worry, they’re not fast talking corporate types. They’re down-to-earth and easy to get along with, just like the rest of the Skildare HR team.
