Lead Investigators

Investigations are led by an MCIPD-qualified HR professional with more than 20 years’ experience in human resources and employee relations, and professional training in conducting workplace investigations.

That experience includes complex and sensitive matters involving senior directors and other senior stakeholders, where discretion and sound judgement matter most.

Investigation training provides the method: how to gather evidence, test it and reach sound conclusions. Two decades in senior HR adds the ability to read that evidence in context, including how the organisation operates and what’s reasonable in employment terms.
