HR, Employee Relations, Industrial Relations and Change Consultants in Perth
Practical people support for WA employers — whatever the industry, whatever the size of your team.
Fast, flexible HR support when you need it
Some people problems can't wait for a permanent hire, or don't justify one. A difficult conversation nobody wants to have. A new policy that needs implementing. A complaint that needs investigating. An enterprise agreement coming up for renegotiation.
Senior support, every time
Perth People & Change is led by Kelly Carter, who spent twenty-five years running HR functions for operational businesses before starting the consultancy, most recently at executive level, leading HR across international operations.
She has negotiated more than twenty enterprise agreements, led people through acquisitions, restructures and start-ups, and worked at every level from remote site crews to executive teams and boards.
Who we work with
Operators and contractors in mining, resources and construction
Site-based workforces, enterprise agreements, contractor complexity and active union involvement. We've worked in these environments for decades, and the advice reflects that rather than a generic template.
Mid-size WA employers without an internal HR function
Fifty to three hundred people, no HR manager, and an issue that has just become serious. We provide senior capability for as long as the situation requires it.
HR teams needing surge capacity or specialist depth
Capable teams sometimes hit something outside their experience, a serious investigation, a bargaining round, a major restructure. We take that piece and leave your team more capable for the next one.
What we do
We help organisations solve complex people challenges though seven specialist services: industrial relations and enterprise bargaining, workplace investigations, learning and development, employee relations, outsourced HR, change management and transformation, and HR foundations and compliance.
Every engagement is scoped and priced before it starts, and delivered personally by the same senior consultant from the first conversation to the final report.
It's simple to get started
01
A conversation
Thirty minutes, no charge, no obligation. Tell us what's happening.
02
A scoped proposal
What's involved, how long it will take, and what it costs, agreed before anything starts.
03
The work
Delivered on site, in your office or remotely, whichever suits, with clear communication throughout.
Something you'd rather not get wrong?
Most engagements start with a short conversation about what's happening and whether we're the right fit.
