Develo’s HR headache ...

Develo case study

Before outsourcing HR, the MD/Founder was juggling compliance worries, endless admin, and procrastinating on tough people decisions – eating up time and mental space that should’ve been spent growing the business.

Outsourcing HR to Wright People

Long-standing performance issues were immediately handled by us. The team finally got the fresh start they needed—no more frustration, just positivity and progress.

Putting the right foundations in place

The next step was brand-new, fully compliant contracts, policies, and processes. No more HR headaches, just peace of mind.
Time-saving HR

HR software now automates onboarding, time-off and appraisals – less hassle, more efficiency.

Smarter performance management

Appraisals and 1:1s now keep staff on track, helping drive company goals with clarity and focus.

Managers, managing

Line managers became trained to run appraisals and 1:1s, providing feedback on people’s performance and ongoing coaching to keep them developing and thriving.
