<p><strong>With Williams Kent, you’ll get</strong></p>

<h2>Our solution</h2><p><br></p><p>Whether you need HR and Reward resource for ten days or ten years, we know the right people and can take care of all of the heavy lifting.</p>

<h3>You don’t have the budget for a full time, permanent resource.</h3>

<p>But you need fast access to experts in HR, L&amp;D, Talent Acquisition, Employee Relations or Reward to put you on the right path, cover maternity, support mergers and acquisitions or to get you through a period of high activity.</p><p>And that’s why fractional, interim and temporary HR and Reward roles are becoming more popular by the minute.</p><p>Finding temporary resource can feel like a full time job in itself - and that’s before you’ve dealt with the administrative burden.</p>

<h1>Contract &amp;</h1><h1>Temporary</h1>

<h2>Our solution</h2><p><br></p><p>Find that enthusiastic HR generalist who is happy to drop into the operational detail. Or the smart HR strategist who can think big picture and long term. Or the talented specialist in L&amp;D, Talent Acquisition, Employee Relations, EVP or Reward who can take your HR function to the next level.</p>

<h3>No matter what’s going on in the world, HR never ceases to be important. It’s a highly specialist and strategic function.</h3>

<p>Yet so many businesses treat HR as tactical, administrative or operational. They just don’t get it.</p><p>You need HR people that can shift the perception of HR from ‘hiring and firing’ to one that builds a better business where everyone can thrive. A business that prioritises employee happiness as highly as the bottom line.</p>

<h1>Executive Search</h1>

<h2>Our solution</h2><p><br></p><p>There’s nothing wild or different about how we do Exec Search. We just have stronger relationships with the people that can elevate your business’ people function.</p>

<h3>Finding the right HR Director, Chief HR Officer, or Reward Director is critical to your success.</h3>

<p>You need someone who can be proactive, rather than reactive. Someone your team want to follow. Someone who can influence the more commercial members of your executive board.</p><p>But it’s hard to get a foot in the door with the best in the business. Or to know if people are as good as they say they are.</p><p>You can’t afford to get this key hire wrong.</p>

<h2>Our solution</h2><p><br></p><p>Let us take recruitment off your hands so you can focus on building and growing your business and culture.</p>

<h3>You’re a new HRD, CPO or CHRO in a startup or scaleup and your business is growing rapidly. Getting the right people at pace is critical to your success.</h3>

<p>But you don’t have an endless supply of time, resource or budget.</p><p>You’re building from the ground up. You need to hire dozens of people in a short space of time, as well as implement processes, policies and the right tech and tools. All while keeping the existing team happy, building a great workplace culture, training and supporting line managers and fire fighting day-to-day issues.</p><p>This is much more than a one-person job.</p>

<h1>RPO</h1>

<h2>Our solution</h2><p><br></p><p>Find your first full time Reward hire who is happy to drop into the operational detail but can also strategise and think long term.</p><p>Or the talented Reward Leader who can elevate your Reward strategy, ensuring you attract and retain the people you need in your business.</p><p>Or perhaps a fractional or interim Reward consultant who can bring their expertise to your executive board for a short period of time.</p><p>Whether it’s executive compensation, pensions, payroll, flexible benefits, share schemes or global mobility - Reward is the technical skillset in HR that progressive organisations cannot ignore.</p>

<h3>Finding talented specialists in Reward or Compensation and Benefits is really hard.</h3><h3><br></h3>

<p>Perhaps you’re just getting started building out your Reward function and aren’t quite sure what you need yet. Or you’re struggling to convince the best Reward talent on the market to join your team.</p><p><br></p><p>Getting this right is mission critical.</p>
