What Our Clients Say About Our HR Support

Our clients trust proHR for expert HR advice, people management support, and employment relations solutions that make business easier.

Intelligent, pragmatic and proactive hands-on support

We have been using Debbie Woollams as a HR Consultant in NZ for approximately four years. Debbie understands implicitly the needs of our business and what our overarching operational goals are as she took the time to understand who we are, what we do and our business vision and philosophy. With Debbie providing intelligent, pragmatic and proactive hands-on support and guidance to our NZ operations I know the business is in exceptionally safe hands and I can trust her absolutely to achieve positive outcomes.
- Allison Freeman, National HR Manager at Assetlink

Providing a most effective solution

Having a Human Resource solution committed to knowing and understanding our business is key. Debbie and her team at proHR provide just that and more, nothing is too much trouble and everything is managed on time and with a detailed explanation to assist in implementation of all our HR needs. This service has allowed MMJ Projects to be in the best position to provide effective HR for all our staff.
- Martin Kelly, Director at MMJ Projects

Vital to the success of transition

Debbie is a highly professional, pragmatic, and experienced HR practitioner who I had the pleasure of working with. She was engaged to assist in the start-up of a New Zealand division for an Australian company. This was a fast transition with limited lead times, large recruitment numbers in a tight market, and strict deadlines for sites spread across both North and South Islands. Debbie was vital to the success of this transition; her organisational skills, knowledge and relationships with the union and other key stakeholders, her ability to quickly build rapport with client representatives, and her calm and empathetic approach to managing recruitment and employee matters, meant that she was trusted to lead the transition process, with the support of the Australian People and Culture team. If (when) my business expands to New Zealand, I will look to Debbie for local collaboration opportunities.

Expert Support with Genuine Care

From my very first chaotic, emotional phone call with Debbie, I knew I was in good hands. She truly listened — not just to what I was saying, but to what I was going through. The questions she asked made it clear she understood the situation; she became both my champion and my calm in the storm.

Debbie’s communication was clear and consistent, and her understanding of the legal and HR complexities around my case was nothing short of brilliant. Even as the process was unnecessarily drawn out, adding to my stress, she gently guided me through every step.

What sets Debbie apart is her rare mix of professionalism and empathy. She made me feel seen, heard, and supported the whole way through.

I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Debbie and proHR to anyone needing HR support or representation. You’ll be in the very best hands.
