Talent Strategy, Strategic Workforce Planning and Operating Model Design
We partner with you to understand key talent strategy and workforce planning challenges by identifying gaps and then prioritising them against your broader business strategy. We consult on how to close capability gaps, designing and optimising everything you're setting out to achieve.
Keeping you laser-focused on the right problems at the right time
By consulting across the whole talent lifecycle, we can advise on how to build the smartest operating models to support attraction and retention goals. With a deep specialisation in Talent Technology, we also have an accurate lens on optimisation and experience. We operate at the leading edge of contemporary talent mobility and marketplace strategies.

Rigour, from beginning to end
We take a granular approach to client discovery and strategic workforce planning that ensures we are solving the right problems and not duplicating effort. This involves a review of existing data, workshops, stakeholder interviews, surveys and feedback, a technology review and an assessment against TQ's Talent Maturity Model. We use this to illustrate future options and roadmaps, supported by detailed business case and ROI analysis. We're operating-model and technology-partner agnostic, allowing us to deliver independent recommendations.

Expertise is at your fingertips
Below are the most common questions we get asked. If you do have a question though, feel free to reach out directly.
We are very transparent in our approach and have no lock-in contracts. Each project is scoped with an underlying estimate of time and fees. Our discovery will help further refine the scope and project costs. We deliver projects on both a time and materials basis, as well as fixed fee and milestone basis. This gives you the best control over costs.
We have a national consulting practice and will allocate appropriate resources to your project. The team will mostly work virtually and come together in person where needed. We successfully manage national and global projects - we've been 'remote first' since we began 15 years ago.
We specialise in strategic workforce planning rather than operational resource management. We work with clients to solve broader workforce strategies rather than tactical day-to-day resource deployments. This enables us to think through capability and enablement requirements your business needs to meet future goals.
We share a data wishlist that at the beginning of a project. This is intended to be a 'wishlist' and we do not expect 100% of the data requested. We will work with our customers to obtain whatever data we can and work with what we have been provided.
