HR CONSULTING

HOW WE WORK

AQO provide a number of solutions, whether it is project based, expertise in a niche area, or short term HR Advisory support.

We believe that people are the foundation of business growth. This success partnership means development, goals and meaningful interactions are all linked on both a personal and professional level. Today the question of “why?” forms a large part of societies drivers. It is no longer enough to just ‘do’ something. Instead there is a conscious decision on an individual level as to our why. Companies who understand this and utilise it to achieve success for everyone involved in their business, are the companies who are seeing results.

AQO ensure you have the correct people operations processes in place to ensure everyone succeeds. Our advice is professional, confidential and has the interests of your business growth and sustainability at the forefront. We offer practical solutions for today’s business place. AQO works at both a strategic and operational level to design and implement solutions that align your HR processes with your overall business strategy. We have a demonstrated track record in creating HR Departments within a high growth start-up environment, as well as developing and streamlining HR teams within structured organisations.

AQO is experienced in the following:

HOW WE ELEVATE

HR ADVISORY

Outsourced people advisory and expertise is one of our strengths. Whether you require a remote advisor, satellite HR Team, or an onsite presence, AQO partners with you to provide the right fit for your company. Our advisory services are available at multiple levels, from ownership and BOD requirements, to the management team, or to providing your employees with a HR resource to assist and develop them. AQO HR Advisory includes all elements of our HR Consultancy expertise such as people capability, management development and organisational design.

AQO is available to provide immediate contract and project support based in New Zealand or the UAE. We are also available worldwide, pending remote working requirements and availability.

HR AUDITS

Growth can occur organically and as such an understanding of the capacity and capability of your workforce can become a secondary matter. AQO has experience in completing HR Audits across several industries and within a number of regions across the world. We understand the process of mapping an organisation and in gathering correct and relevant data to gain a true understanding of the organisation, its people and its challenges.

An HR Audit acts as a fitness check to show the current state of your people operations. It focuses on reviewing how your company functions from a human resources perspective and provides findings and recommendations to implement solutions that minimise risk and stay in compliance with the law and best practice.

AQO offers two Audit options. We have a complimentary Mini HR Audit and a comprehensive Audit option. To discuss our audit options please contact AQO on our contact form.
