HR firm hot-foots its to new contract
A North East HR consultancy is stepping into the spotlight after winning a major contract with a well-known shoe retailer.
Directors Andy Holgate and Caroline Dixon, of Gosforth-based Holgate HR, will work with John Eliot (Footwear) Ltd to redesign the performance management strategy and competence framework of the business.
The growing footwear company, based in South Shields, is the largest Clarks franchise operator in the UK and has nine stores from Northumberland to West Yorkshire, employing approximately 100 staff.
The business is continuing to expand and opened its new store before Christmas in the new Sanderson Arcade in Morpeth, Northumberland.
The Holgate HR directors are well placed to take on the challenge of working with several stores.
They have more than 40 years of combined multi-sector HR and people development experience, including working with FTSE 250 companies.
