About

Karen Tappin

If you are looking for an HR Consultant with excellent knowledge in employee relations. Who has handled more disciplinary, grievance, absence management and performance improvement cases than you can shake a stick at. Who also loves an HR project, is great at building relationships and providing guidance to line managers, then you might have landed on the right page.

I’m Karen (don’t let the name put you off) and owner of KT People an independent standalone HR Consultancy. I work with SME’s and start ups to provide HR advice to business owners and line managers who either do not have their own HR department or are overloaded with the day to day running of the department and require some support with an HR transformation project.

I’m described as honest, straight talking, ethical and if I don’t know the answer to your question then I will make it my job to find it out. And I manage to deliver all this with integrity and professionalism while keeping my sense of humour.

Based in Middlesex/ Surrey and remotely
