Darbyshire Consulting

What our clients say

"As MD of PolymerLatex Ltd, the UK subsidiary of an international chemical company, I worked closely with Graham over a four-year period, which ended only when the UK Company was closed down in December 2011 as part of a European restructuring programme.

Graham provided both high-level insight and a great deal of hands-on, operational HR support.  He was invaluable in helping to guide me and the business through many changes and HR activities, including management recruitment, contract negotiations, drafting of policies, TUPE and a range of one-off personnel issues.  Latterly, he helped to steer us through the site-closure process.

His particular qualities were his ability to give international management advice.  He understood my different German background and mentality and, based on that, was able to give profound advice in a difficult shutdown and closure situation.  This contributed to a very smooth and successful closure process at our Bromsgrove Site.

I would highly recommend Graham to anyone running a business, particularly with international involvement, and in need of wise counsel and practical HR skills.  He was also fun to work with!"
