Outsourced HR Services UK & Compliance Support
Running a business can be challenging—managing your HR should not be one of those challenges. At Cape Consulting, we specialise in providing outsourced HR services designed to lighten your load, giving you more time to focus on growing other crucial aspects of your business.
Our HR outsourcing solutions are structured to be flexible and cost-effective. Whether you are a small business, start-up, or charity, you will always have access to the expert support needed to build a positive workplace culture without incurring the significant expense of hiring an in-house HR team.
Why Outsource HR?

Save time & reduce cost
Managing HR in-house can be both expensive and time-consuming for small businesses, start-ups, or charities. By outsourcing your HR to us, you eliminate the need for recruiting, training, and maintaining a full HR team. Instead, you gain professional expertise at an accessible price point—freeing up your budget for growth and giving you more time to focus on your business priorities.

Stay compliant with UK employment law
Employment law in the UK is constantly evolving and often complex. A single misstep in contracts, policies, or processes can expose your business to costly penalties or legal action. We ensure every HR process meets statutory requirements, giving you peace of mind, full compliance, and protection against liability.

Expert HR guidance on demand
HR issues rarely arrive with warning. Whether you are dealing with an urgent disciplinary matter, a grievance, or planning a restructure, you will have immediate access to clear, practical advice from experienced HR professionals. We don’t just present you with options—we guide you towards the right solution for your people and your business.

People-centred support
A strong HR function should do more than protect your business—it should empower your people. That is exactly what we do. Our advice is not only legally compliant but also empathetic and people-focused. We help you create positive, fair, and supportive workplace practices that strengthen culture, boost morale, and increase productivity.
Our Outsourced HR Solutions
Retained HR support (policies, handbooks & compliance)
Our priority is to provide small businesses with a strong HR foundation. We continuously draft and update essential documents such as contracts, employee handbooks, and policies, ensuring they remain legally compliant and tailored to your business. This keeps you ahead of employment law changes, protects you from costly mistakes, and ensures ongoing compliance.
Day-to-day HR advice
We respond quickly to everyday issues such as absence, contracts, or grievances that can drain your time. Our practical on-demand advice helps you resolve problems fairly, consistently, and in line with the law. Think of us as your trusted HR partner, available on call to guide you before minor issues become major problems.
HR project & interim support
Sometimes advice alone is not enough. If you are starting a new business line, implementing a new HR system, or temporarily without an internal HR manager, we provide hands-on interim support to keep projects moving forward without delay.
TUPE, redundancy & restructure
Organisational change can be complex. With our structured guidance, you can confidently navigate TUPE transfers, restructures, or redundancy processes. Our approach balances legal protection with empathetic handling, ensuring confidentiality, professionalism, and support for your team throughout periods of change.
