London

We are a passionate group of HR specialists that love to deal with people. My name is Paula Ashton and in 2012 I started Ashton People Solutions, a company which provides HR support, advice and consultancy to small to medium sized businesses across the UK. I have worked in HR for over 20 years in corporate organisations such as Barclays, Royal Bank of Scotland, Dixons Group and the automotive sector. I developed Ashton People Solutions as a result of friends and family business-owners requesting my help with HR issues. I soon realised that there was demand for ad-hoc HR support for smaller businesses, either on-site or remotely. I have extensive experience of dealing with employment law advice, HR policy advice – including disciplinary and grievance-, maternity and absence management. I have managed large-scale recruitment and selection campaigns and can offer this service along with training and development programmes. I have a Masters in Personnel & Development and a Chartered MCIPD qualified member. In addition to this, I am also a Qualified Trainer, Level A Psychometric Assessor and Level B Personality Profiling Assessor. Claire and Brigid are HR Assistants and joined me in April 2021. Claire holds a Level 5 CIPD HR Management qualification and a 1st class honours degree in Law & Business Management. Claire has 15 years of valuable HR experience from her background which includes the public and private sector and education. Brigid also holds a Level 5 CIPD HR Management qualification and is an Associate CIPD member. Brigid has eight years worth of HR experience in the private and charity sector, working at The Trafford Centre and Chester Zoo. Our bespoke service offers flexibility and a personal approach – which sets us apart from many other HR support service providers.

EKTE Vision

I was the Founder and CEO of SEO Agency Verve Search, a company I built from scratch and grew to become one of the most respected and award-winning agencies in Europe. In 2017, I sold Verve Search to Omnicom Media Group, staying on as CEO until January 2021. If you want to learn more about my journey with Verve, read the story of Verve here. In addition to Verve Search, I have had several non-executive and advisory roles. I have mentored dozens of people throughout my career and find great joy in supporting others on their journey. If I have learned anything about how to succeed in business, it’s that you have to be true to yourself – every step of the way. I draw on my knowledge of psychology and neuroscience and apply it to business management, creating a unique offering that focuses on the humans behind the business. I help people find their truths and become more authentically, more truly themselves. That’s what it means to be Ekte. Mentoring I have mentored dozens of people throughout my career, and I find great joy in supporting others on their journey. I believe that it is the distance between who we are, and who we pretend to be, that creates blocks to growth, both personal and business. My mentoring system will help you close that gap.
