Hello, my name is

Katie Twynam

Freelance HR Solutions

I DELIVER

Strategic HR for Growing, Scaling & International Businesses

Growing businesses don’t need “corporate" HR.

I work with SMEs, start-ups and international businesses that are:

Scaling quickly
Expanding into new countries
Restructuring or professionalising their people function
Navigating complex employment law
Looking to strengthen performance and culture

With over 17 years operating at senior HR level across the UK and Europe — including leadership roles within organisations such as Barclays, BMO Financial Group, Securitas UK, Ikano Bank and European scale-up BauWatch Group — I bring the credibility of large, complex environments and apply it in a way that works for agile, ambitious businesses.

I don’t create HR for the sake of it. I build people strategies that enable growth, reduce risk and improve performance.
