I cannot recommend MJV Consulting highly enough. The team have been instrumental in helping us streamline our HR processes and procedures.
As a local charity, it is vital that we remain compliant while continuing to support our small but agile team effectively. MJV Consulting have gone above and beyond to guide us through the complexities of employment law and HR compliance, offering clear, practical advice at every stage.
Their support has covered all aspects of our human resources, and we’ve found their service to be extremely cost-effective.
The team are approachable, responsive, and always willing to help, no matter the query.
We are incredibly grateful for their expertise and ongoing support.”

If you’re ready to take HR off your to-do list and put it in the hands of people who genuinely care about getting it right, we’d love to hear from you.
Get in touch for a free, no-obligation discovery call. We’ll talk through your business, your current HR setup, and recommend the right level of retained HR support for where you are now, and where you’re headed.
All the expertise of an in-house HR team.
Yes. While we support businesses right across Brighton and Hove, we also work with companies throughout Sussex, Surrey and the wider South East, including Horsham, Crawley, Haywards Heath and Guildford.
Costs depend on the level of support you need. We offer fixed-fee retained packages and flexible ad-hoc support, so you only pay for what you use. Get in touch for a tailored quote.
A retained package gives you ongoing, consistent access to HR expertise each month, ideal if you manage staff regularly. Ad-hoc support is pay-as-you-go, suited to businesses that only need occasional HR help.
Both. We’re happy to meet with Brighton businesses in person, and we also offer remote support by phone and video call for maximum flexibility.
We can usually arrange a free discovery call straight away. Once we understand your needs, support can typically be in place very quickly.
Yes. Employment law in the UK applies from your very first hire. Small businesses are just as exposed to compliance issues and disputes, so getting things right early matters.
We review your contracts, policies and processes against each phase of the Employment Rights Act, providing the HR advice you need to stay compliant and avoid unnecessary risk.
