Why Bedrock Sponsored 'Challenging Perceptions'

Bedrock were delighted to be involved as a sponsor for the Challenging Perceptions exhibition and more widely for Interestingly Different. The focus on widening work opportunities to those who may be seen by many as unemployable is close to their hearts. They said, 'As HR professionals, we know that talent comes in all shapes and sizes and we know that aside from a moral case, there is a business case to be made for a diverse workforce. Our most successful clients achieve this.'

Who are Bedrock HR?

Bedrock HR provides outsourced HR support to organisations of various sizes.

They work with businesses that either don’t have an internal HR team or need additional expertise to support their leadership. Their focus is on helping organisations to manage employment-related risks and get the best out of their people. Essentially, Bedrock HR functions as an external HR department, offering support when and where it's needed.

What do they do?

Their service includes everything from hiring and onboarding to managing performance, developing policies, and handling employee exits. Their aim is to support businesses in building effective teams, staying compliant with employment regulations, and creating a positive working environment.

Their Story

Bedrock HR was founded by David Mellard, following over ten years for David in senior HR roles within the university sector. The company initially worked with clients in the property and finance industries. Through this early work, it became clear that many small and growing businesses face a common challenge: the need for experienced HR support without the cost or complexity of hiring in-house. Bedrock HR was created to meet that need.

Who are Bedrock HR's clients?

Bedrock HR work with a wide variety of organisations, including professional services firms, tech start-ups, schools, charities, and businesses in the creative sector.

While their clients operate in different fields, they often face similar challenges, ensuring compliance with employment law, managing people effectively, and creating conditions where teams can perform at their best.

Thanks again for your generous sponsorship, Bedrock HR.
