WHAT DO WE DO?
HOW DO WE TRANSFORM BUSINESSES?
People Puzzles was founded 12 years ago by Ally Maughan, after working as an HR consultant. 12 years on, it now has a team of over 90 part-time board level People Directors working in ten regions, with over 400 clients across the UK. People Puzzles’ priority is to drive change and deliver growth for ambitious businesses. We help them to thrive and be more successful by transforming the people stresses holding back progress to create happier, more productive workplaces that will attract and retain brilliant people. We provide our clients with a dedicated local strategic, commercially savvy, part-time People Director, who will get to know your business. More importantly, they get to know the people within it, and develop people strategies that help them to deliver results, transform and grow.

WHY PART-TIME?
Two-fold really. Many mid-tier businesses don’t need or want a full-time resource, but they do need that injection of senior skill and experience to move them successfully through their next stage of growth. People Puzzles’ parttime solution meets our clients’ needs and requirements.
We now have a clear vision for the Companies 5 Pillars, In-house manager, leadership ‘Power 90’ Training and a rhythm of key meetings throughout each year. This has had a direct contribution to the significant growth of the company in the last three years. With this support from People Puzzles, the company continues to grow both financially and culturally for the benefit of all. Managing Director, RVT Group

There are six areas that we believe are the essential elements of a healthy organisation’s HR function. What we call our People Puzzles Pinwheel, it’s driven by your company’s business strategy at the very centre. From this we work with our clients on the transformational elements of your leadership team and company culture, as well as with the operational elements that include your people processes, team structure and talent.
