We have utilised the services of Andrew Schuette at Simply HR at Lort Smith since 2012. Andrew has performed numerous roles, from acting directly with regard to operational HR matters, through to strategic HR planning, performance development improvements, training delivery and leading the management team in EBA negotiations. He has excellent expertise in HR and IR and understands the importance of planning and effective implementation of HR initiatives. Andrew is also very strategic and has without doubt contributed to an excellent outcome for both staff and Lort Smith in its 2014 EBA negotiations. Andrew has great personal style, characterised by fairness, openness and honesty, and builds rapport and trust with all levels of staff easily. We value his intellect, skill and experience in both HR and IR and continue to use his services.

One of the biggest challenges we have faced in growing our family business into a more corporate structure has been the management of Human Resources. Initially, we engaged consultants who were typically contracted by larger organisations, but the solutions offered were difficult to implement due to scale and complexity, not to mention the expense. We needed far more practical advice and support to implement the key components of our strategy, and to help deal directly – and quickly – with the hurdles as they arose.
Andrew Schuette from Simply HR has become a vital part of our business by getting involved in strategy formation, and the implementation process, with a level of practicality, engagement and participation we did not find in other consulting firms. This has enabled us to have a much more functional and cost-effective HR resource, which businesses our size rarely achieve.
If you are in the ‘15 to 50’ employee category as we are, I cannot recommend Simply HR highly enough.

Simply HR provided the experience and expertise to take our company’s Policies and Procedures for Bullying & Harassment and build an interactive and informative training program for our business leaders. The program not only covered our documentation but also case studies and relevant legislation. Andrew’s presentation style is engaging and hit the mark across our business to the various stakeholders. Andrew’s approach is collaborative and his ability to understand the business was clear in his ability to provide an effective HR Management Plan. I would use Simply HR again and highly recommend Andrew to any business that requires professional and personable service in the Human Resources arena.

We have engaged Simply HR to assist us with recruitment and contract negotiations several times over the past 18 months. Their practical and meaningful advice has been crucial during our recent restructure, ensuring our human resource obligations are met and our new talent is integrated successfully into the business. Andrew’s expertise has also been instrumental in designing a professional development plan for our people ensuring individual’s goals, as well as the businesses success measures are incorporated. I would recommend Simply HR to anyone in need of professional human resource advice and support, as we have referred them to several of our clients.
