HRVA

This is what my Clients say…

“Jo and I were originally colleagues at Severn Trent Systems and when I needed some help at Hornbuckle Mitchell I had no hesitation in contacting her. Jo’s flexibility and approach to the initial assignment to provide HR consultancy in the sale of part of our business was what picked her out from the other candidates. Jo was at all times professional and flexible on the assignment and her style helped to keep a potentially volatile situation under control. The project itself was challenging and included redundancies, TUPE and internal recruitment. The exercise was executed successfully and to tight timescales.

When another similar assignment came to close an office and make a number of redundancies I had no hesitation of contacting Jo again and contracting with her to do the work. The work required regular travel to London which Jo was happy to undertake and she even introduced me to the Virgin First Class Lounge! Again Jo’s style and approach worked well and the closure was managed extremely smoothly and without significant issue.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jo to other similar organisations unless it meant that she wasn’t available to work for Hornbuckle Mitchell.” Sean Haswell,  IT & HR Director, Hornbuckle Mitchell

“Jo Jinks worked with me through a very difficult period involving a huge amount of business change. She positively thrived on the challenges this created and worked incredibly hard to review and improve HR admin processes and ensure the right people were in place to take the HR team forward. Jo is very energetic, positive, proactive, efficient and great fun to work with and I would love the opportunity to work with her again in the future. She would be an asset to any business and I would have no hesitation in recommending her as I know she will provide a first class service” Gail Howlett, HR Interim Manager, Remploy 

“Jo Jinks is a willing and very able member of any team, who uses her knowledge and experience to manage challenging issues well. She maintains her professionalism at all times and enables the teams she works with to find business orientated solutions as quickly as possible. Jo is very approachable and a positive person to work with.”  Anna Vale, Commercial Director, Logica Ltd

“I am happy to recommend Jo Jinks on all levels, from personal through to professional – she is hardworking, creative and fun, with an eye for detail. She would be an asset to anyone who had the need to use her services. Jo and I worked together when I managed the Managed Service contract that STW had with SK to provide all of their technical contract resources. STW’s resource requirements ranged across the technical and business spectrum, and at its busiest included almost 250 contract staff. Throughout this contract, I found working with Jo refreshing and rewarding. From a level of trust and close co-operation we were able to achieve significant and continual improvements to the level of service to the STW recruiters. Jo was a pleasure to work with, with a keen focus on the end results, but with the flexibility, foresight and strength of character to make informed decisions and implement changes along the journey to ensure the best possible outcomes.”  Paula Toovey, Quality Manager, Crimson Ltd
