Testimonials
“Would definitely recommend Catherine to any business looking for an experienced hr professional to support them with their project ”
“Catherine worked with us to review and streamline our contractor engagement process. The process was inefficient leading to duplication and frustration in the business. Catherine managed the needs and expectations of multiple stakeholders and working with our in-house IT, helped us develop a new ‘app’ solution, as well as re-mapping processes, updating relevant policies and training the new process. I would highly recommend Catherine.”
