About Us

Why choose 365 People Support?

With over 25 years of operational HR experience in the hospitality industry, we have the knowhow to provide ‘pain relief’ for all those people challenges that need more than a sticking plaster.

And with that understanding comes a service that is available when you need it, not just office hours.  As a hospitality business you need advice when you need it, not when we want to give it.

An operational rather than an office or departmental background means you know advice you receive will be quick, realistic without unnecessary process.

365 People Support has provided our HR support for well over a year now, and their service has been excellent. Myself, our managers and head chefs have access to support 24/7. Advice and associated paperwork is always concise, business focused and not cloaked in HR speak. Knowledge and experience of our industry has been invaluable beyond HR, and it is a bonus to be able to discuss other business thoughts and challenges beyond HR with James.

James came recommended to us and as we had quite a pressing need for some HR advice, he moved his diary around for us at very short notice.
Really helpful and full of advice, we addressed the initial issue and then went on to do a full review with James of our existing practices and with his support and guidance, have now a very robust set of policies and procedures including a one page employment contract document, which is a huge break-through for us, given the number of casual staff we will use over the course of a year.
Many thanks fella – great stuff !

The service I received was impeccable. I needed support to carry out some personality profiling for the exec team of a marketing firm. James had the surveys sent within 24 hours and the reports were in my inbox within 24 hours of the last test being completed. The whole thing came in 3 days ahead of schedule. I’d highly recommend James and 365 People Support. Great job.

Working with James has been my first experience of coaching. I am really enjoying our sessions and find them to be hugely beneficial to focus my time and effort in the best places – both in work and home life. He asks all of the right questions to allow me to reflect and consider what might be preventing me from achieving my personal goals. The SWOT exercise we completed in our first session was particularly insightful.
