I have found Sam Swinstead and Emma Hansford extremely professional, helpful and without hesitation supportive. I was given very detailed advice on dealing with an HR/contract situation. I certainly could not have managed without her knowledge and expertise. Sam became our 'HR' department and presented with confidence, skill and expertise in this field. Challenge Manager offered our company an invaluable service and I will, without hesitation, continue to work with them for all our future HR needs.

I have always found Sam Swinstead to be exceptionally helpful - whether as a Business Adviser for a charity, organising events or leading a CV session with students. She prepares thoroughly, presents professionally, advises knowledgeably - with a beaming smile throughout! In short, she is a pleasure to work with.

I was provided with very detailed advice on dealing with my HR situation, from the first enquiry right through to verifying that correspondence I was sending was appropriate. Considerable follow up took place and I felt I could call at any point to recap on advice and information. I thoroughly recommend Challenge Manager.
