Careers at Lighter HR

Could you be the next Lighter HR consultant?

We’re always looking for great consultants to be part of the team

Join our HR Consultancy

At Lighter HR Solutions, we pride ourselves on really understanding the challenges that our clients face and have built a team of HR consultants that provide pragmatic, proven solutions and advice, rather than “one size fits all, read from a script” guidance.

We do not operate a call-centre type model; our consultants know their clients as it’s only by understanding the people and environment that we can really help businesses to accurately assess their risk and options when dealing with HR issues.

With our business growing continuously, predominantly from client referrals, we are keen to expand the team with experienced HR practitioners.
