Frank is a Human Resources and consulting professional with extensive experience across a wide range of industrial, commercial, public sector and not-for-profit organisations. He helps clients optimise their organisation's pay and reward and HR strategies through solutions tailored to their specific culture and circumstances through a variety of assignment models: strategy and option reviews; implementation planning and support; call-off support and advice; remuneration committee support; and interim management. He offers a comprehensive service across the whole reward environment - organisation and role design, pay and benefit structures, HR policy and practice - helping clients link reward practices to business objectives. Experience and Qualifications
| profile & consultancy approach | Frank initially followed a line personnel management career that included periods in chemical, retail, engineering, electronics and transport sectors. Since entering consultancy, initially with one of the major UK practices and subsequently working independently, he has added other commercial areas, central and local government and not-for-profit sectors to his portfolio.
His consulting style is to work closely with clients to provide tailored solutions that will be effective in their own culture and circumstances through a variety of assignment models that include strategy and option reviews; implementation planning and support; call-off support and advice; or interim management. He specialises in providing clients with a comprehensive service across the whole pay and reward environment. Some assignments are to review and update specific elements of reward packages, such as salary structures, pay benchmarking, job evaluation or performance management. Often wider issues of organisation and role design and general HR policy reviews tie together reward practices and business objectives. Studies to advise and support remuneration committees have often featured in assignments. Developing effective pay and organisation structures not only calls for specialist expertise but draws heavily on the traditional skills of the consultant; programme planning and control, individual and group interview programmes, data collection and desk research. Innovative analysis and feedback to all levels of management and staff are supported by a high standard of drafting and report writing. Every organisation is different and off-the-shelf systems rarely fit so recommendations must work for each client in their own, unique environment. Frank Hobson Consulting provides an effective, responsive resource that works with the in-house team, not around it. Independent professional support can provide more than just extra resources and technical advice. It can add that key element of credibility needed to gain staff confidence and acceptance. All clients are approached with the same enthusiasm, energy and commitment and assignments are always based on a clear agreement about work schedules, feedback and outputs to provide a highly flexible, cost-effective service designed to provide the support clients need in a way that will work for them:
