Supportive, helpful and invaluable

Fraser was supportive, helpful, and went through each element of the issue I raised with him, to assist me in making the right decision for the process that may need to be undertaken.

The CIPD helpline has been, and continues to be of huge value to my business, and I would highly recommended.

Five-Star Guidance Every Step of the Way

Adam Nutting has been absolutely outstanding from start to finish. He was supportive, brilliant and genuinely personable, and his empathy made a huge difference during what was a difficult time for me. It was clear he truly cared and was fully invested in helping me reach a positive outcome.

His expert advice was incredibly helpful. He took the time to go through every option I put forward, talking honestly about the risks and benefits of each one so I could make the right decision with confidence. I always felt he was right there with me, not just giving advice but really supporting me through it.

I also really appreciated how present he was. He checked in regularly, came along with me on the journey and called back straight away whenever I needed him. It made me feel heard, understood and never on my own.

Adam delivered a first-class service and made a genuinely human impact at a time when I needed it most. Thank you, Adam — a well-deserved five stars.

Amelia explained everything

Amelia explained everything, she was really informative, helpful and professional. Throughout our calls, she asked if we understood everything and if we had any further questions. We didn't feel at all rushed throughout the call. She followed up with an email, which is also reassuring when you're using a new portal.

Friendly and approachable team

I recently completed my Navigate Tax onboarding call with Amelia. Amelia was super friendly and approachable - no question was too small. She very quickly understood my needs and adapted the walk through to the topics and areas I noted I needed assistance on. A very enjoyable and helpful 30min call! Thanks Amelia :)

One-stop shop for all things HR

This is an invaluable one-stop shop for all things HR. It's great to know that it's always 100% up to date with current legislation so you are working with accurate documents and materials. It's easy to navigate around (thanks to Amelia taking the time to give me an comprehensive guided tour) and well worth the investment.
