GAP Communications started with a 3-man operation and has now grown into a National Operation of over 300 staff. People Business has been associated with our company on a consulting basis since its inception. During the turmoil of the last six years their guidance has played a crucial and integral part in the successful growth of our company. Adam Clark and his team manage to combine a client first approach to business with a down to earth humanitarian approach to the issues at hand. I can't recommend Adam and his team strongly enough.

Ausmelt Limited has approximately 50 professional qualified staff comprising mainly metallurgists and engineers. As a small company, Ausmelt does not have a full time HR Manager, opting to use the consultancy services of Adam Clark and his team. Adam has successfully work hand-in-hand with Ausmelt management to help with staff recruitment, staff development plans, performance planning and assessment, short and long term staff incentive schemes, salary benchmarking, staff termination and redundancy, counselling and job search assistance. I have been more than happy with the level of professionalism, enthusiasm and expertise that Adam and his team has provided to our Company.
Paul AbbotManaging Director, Ausmelt Limited
Adam and his team have delivered an outsourced HR solution to our company for the past 10 years. Adam is a natural fit to our organization and I now consider him part of our senior management team. Once goals are determined he is able to deliver the required outcomes in a timely and professional manner. He provides excellent advice and is always reliable. Adam also handles our recruitment needs which has saved us thousands in agency fees. In summary I would say "Highly recommended".

Creative Brands has two iconic Australian brands, “Australis” cosmetics and "Le Tan" sunscreens and tanners. As a relatively small company with a staff of 60 we were unable to justify the appointment of a full time HR Manager. As such the flexible and cost effective package offered by People Business represented an ideal fit for our organization. We were able to draw on a comprehensive suite of HR services which were delivered in a professional manner at all times. Taking into consideration both quality and cost I am happy to recommend Adam Clark and his team as a viable and pragmatic HR solution.
Stephen MasonManaging Director, Creative Brands Pty Ltd
Adam and his team have provided an outsourced HR solution to our organisation for 4 years, effectively becoming a part time member of the senior management team, fulfilling all HR requirements typically provided by a Senior HR Manager. Adam successfully recruited around 30 people to our company, a number of which comprised senior and middle management roles. I believe that his business represents a cost effective HR option ideally suited to small and/or growing companies and I have no hesitation in recommending Adam Clark and his team to similar organisations.
Hugh GleesonChief Executive Officer, United Energy and Multinet Gas
I've worked with Adam and his team for over 3 years, developing and implementing an organisational HR System for Stornoway's 50+ permanent staff. As a medium-sized enterprise, I needed cost-effective HR support and someone my staff would be comfortable with. I'm confident that, with their ongoing support, I can continue to meet my HR needs without an in-house specialist.
Tim GardnerGeneral Manager, Stornoway Contracting Pty Ltd
