If you are a start-up, byen helps you hit the ground running, ensuring from the beginning that your business model is going to have a positive impact.

Start-Up.

Are you almost ready for your first employee and want an ethical framework of policies and processes in place? Lower the risks with us as we will be with you for exactly the right amount of time to ensure the foundations are exactly how you want them to be.

 
If you are established, engaging byen gives you an independent review of your company and shows you where to build and grow to make a greater positive impact.

Restructuring or Growth. Rather than look at the job title and role description, we look at the tasks people are actually doing. Where is the real need for additional staff? How does one role complement another – cross over into other departments? Targeted advertising of the roles to help increase the diversity of candidates. Implement processes that ensure equality of opportunity, fairness, inclusion, and respect.

 

 
 
 

Scale Up.

Growing to the point where you are no longer involved in the recruitment process is amazing, but will your culture dissipate? We ensure you have your internal communications nailed and your onboarding process is robust.
