PERSONALISED ONE-ON-ONE SUPPORT

Meet Louise McGeady

Louise is the founder of Opal People Solutions and our Principal HR Consultant. She has worked in senior Human Resource Management for more than 20-years in predominantly the food manufacturing and logistics/supply chain industries.

Her desire to create work environments that are supportive and inclusive, while keeping productivity and profitability top of mind, drove her to found Opal People Solutions.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

  • Louise is an exceptionally competent HR professional. I value her decisiveness and I have absolute trust and confidence in the advice she consistently provides to both myself and the rest of the team. She has guided us through extensive challenges in our business, supported me in improving the IR culture on site and has pro-actively managed particularly complex employee relations issues which ensured my business was protected.

    Gary McHaffie

    General Manager, Wincanton Group Ltd

  • Opal People Solutions have been working in partnership with Allingham Transport since 2015. We enjoy the security and peace of mind we have in knowing that, not only will Louise react to our needs, but she will respond in a timely and professional manner. She is highly knowledgeable in all HR matters, she works with us to get the best solutions to our issues but, above all, we are comfortable dealing with her and value her informal approach.

    Thomas Allingham

    Managing Director, Allingham Transport Ltd

  • In 2015, we had a need to ensure we were legally compliant with respect to our people policies and procedures. Louise came highly recommended to us by a mutual contact within the food industry and we engaged her primarily to develop a company handbook. Louise understands the importance of relationships in business and places integrity, trust and ethics at the heart of that relationship. For that reason, we have recently re-engaged the services of Opal People Solutions on a retained basis. Louise exudes energy and passion and works collaboratively with us in finding creative solutions to support and drive our people strategy.

    Susan Fitzsimmons

    COO, Audit Comply

  • Louise has an in-depth knowledge of employment law and expertise, gained primarily within both the food and logistics industry. Louise is an excellent Human Resource Consultant and Business Partner who provides effective people solutions to business problems. She clearly understands the commercial needs of an organisation whilst bringing balance to the employee-employer relationship.

    Julie Scates

    Director, Corvus Recruitment Ltd

  • Louise has been of great support to our business over the past number of years. She provides us with expert advice and is totally flexible and responsive to our needs. She has an ability to think strategically which means we are able to avoid potential pitfalls. She builds client-focused relationships and we have absolute trust she acts in our best interests at all times.

    Roy Lyttle

    Managing Director, Roy Lyttle Ltd

  • As a small business owner, I required someone who was professional, reliable and flexible to assist in HR procedures. Louise was quick and precise in the work she did for us – she is extremely knowledgeable in her field and presented a company handbook and contracts for staff within a short period of time which ensured more clear and effective procedures in place. I would happily recommend Louise to any business that values people and is looking for highly competent HR advice and support.
