About Us
Laura Capindale
I've worked in Human Resources for over 10 years across various private and public sector organisations and prior to this, held senior roles within Local Government. I also teach HR Apprentices and enjoy passing on my experience to the next generation of HR Professionals.
​
Most importantly for me, I come from a family of small business owners and I passionately believe in supporting local businesses, building stronger communities and happier workplaces.
​
It's from this belief I founded The HR Crowd and work alongside other like-minded HR professionals to deliver practical and commercially focused solutions to help other small businesses and their employees.
​
I have a Level 7 (PGDip) qualification in Human Resource Management, an NLP Diploma in Coaching, Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement and a Level 3 Award in Education and Training. I am also an Associate member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development (CIPD).
​
When I'm not being busy working or parenting, you'll find me on a tennis court or enjoying the outdoors with my husband, son and our crazy Springador, Dexter.
The HR Crowd was founded during 2020 as a community Facebook group to support and connect SME's during the government lockdown due to Covid-19.
​
Since then the need for HR support has increased more than ever and we've found that many small businesses are unable to access or afford the support they need to grow, which we wanted to address.
​
We also know it's a changing world and with mental health conditions increasing worldwide we're passionate in our belief that happiness in the workplace is the pathway to business success.
​
We offer the comprehensive capabilities and deep industry knowledge necessary to make sure your employees (and you!) are happy and productive, and to help you solve the most complex issues within your organisation, as and when you need it.
​
From the basics of our low cost customisable templates and policies, to ensure you stay compliant and avoid the costly pitfalls of HR mistakes, to tailored packages to give you the clarity and confidence to reach your organisation goals.
