About

Support from someone who understands small businesses

Having spent many years working in family businesses and operational roles, I know first-hand how much small business owners have to juggle. When you’re wearing lots of hats, it’s easy for things to get put off — but with employment law continuing to change, and the introduction of the Fair Work Agency, it’s important to stay on top of the people side of your business.

That’s where I come in. With a background spanning operations, HR and payroll, I offer flexible, affordable support to help small businesses stay on top of HR, payroll, benefits, training and business admin — without the cost of employing in-house.
