The culture handbook has been a really useful tool to give to new employees to help outline who we are and what to expect when working at Riverside. It’s benefited our business as it streamlines information and gives key points staff must be aware of.

The funded HR consultancy support enabled HTA to carry out a professionally designed and independently delivered employee engagement survey that we would not have had the internal capacity or specialist expertise to run ourselves.Limelite HR provided a highly professional, well-structured, and insightful approach throughout the process. The independence of the consultancy increased employee trust and participation and resulted in high-quality, actionable insight into engagement, performance and reward transparency, career development, and connection to the wider HORIBA group.The findings have provided a robust evidence base to inform leadership discussion, people strategy priorities, and workforce planning. Without the funded support, our approach would have been more limited in scope and credibility, and significantly less effective in identifying areas of risk and opportunity.The WCC Workforce Planning tool also supported more structured thinking about future skills and capability needs when considered alongside the survey outcomes. Overall, the funded consultancy support delivered significant value, strengthened our understanding of employee experience, and ensured that future engagement and workforce initiatives are based on credible insight rather than assumptions.Louise Dunn-Massey
