Our HR Services
Redundancy and Restructuring
If your business needs redundancy or restructuring support, our experienced team can guide you through the whole process.
Employment
Contracts
If you’re not issuing valid contracts to your team, you’re immediately starting from a position of weakness
Policies and
Procedures
Without policies and procedures, your business is weak; if you end up in a tribunal without them, you’re in trouble.
Employee
Handbook
An employee handbook is essential for protecting your business and ensuring your team understands their rights and responsibilities.
Disciplinary and Performance Management
Hiring staff is great, until it’s not, and managing performance and dealing with disciplinary issues is not what most of us went into business for.
Whatever HR challenge you're facing, we're here to help.Â

25+ Years of HR Expertise
With over two decades of experience supporting small and medium businesses, we know what it takes to keep your company safe, compliant, and primed for success.
Work with us, and you tap into all of that expertise, get the tailored advice and support you need, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your business is protected, no matter what challenges come your way.
J Mann Associates – a small business, just like you.
HR advisors are ten a penny. The difference with J Mann Associates is our total focus on YOU as the business owner, what you need and what matters most to you.
UK employment law is a minefield, and because it’s complicated, too many HR companies dispense advice that’s one size fits all, and doesn’t have you and your needs at the heart of it.
We’re an independent business, just like you, and we understand what it’s like. That’s why we give advice that’ll keep your business protected, while still allowing you to run your business in the way you want.
Just as importantly, we know that the way your business runs impacts the life you live, which is why we take the time to understand what’s important to you, and deliver you the right advice that allows you to:

- Spend less time working in your business, because you’re confident in your team to do what they need to do
- Take more time off, because the business isn’t dependent on you
- Scale your business because your workplace culture is embedded at all levels
- Make your business a saleable asset, whether you plan to sell it or not
What our clients say...
"I can't recommend Jacqui enough"
Jacqui and her team are absolutely fab.
We've accomplished a lot together in the HR department, and we've been helped when we needed it most too. I can't recommend Jacqui enough!
Rees Keene Chief Experience Maker at Over Farm
"No nonsense and down-to-earth approach"
The team at J Mann Associates are so approachable, and, in particular, the 'no nonsense' and 'down-to-earth' approach which is what is needed when dealing with HR, a subject which often strikes fear in the hearts of those of us who only touch the edges of the subject.Â
Also, how quickly one can get the guidance and reassurance needed just by picking up the phone, or sending a quick email. Compared with other companies we have used in the past, you are the human face of HR.
Kate Redding Buckingham Ford
"J Mann Associates is there if you need them"
You can call and get all the support you need with any HR issue or topic.
And it will be handled perfectly and reduces the stress for the business. But you do a lot more than that. Your company is not just reactive… You are proactively taking the lead, sharing updates and best practice. You prompt businesses to look at how they do things and question whether they could do things differently or better. It’s much more of a partnership.
Andrew Munt Managing Director, Penta Hotels Worldwide GmbH
"J Mann Associates are my safety blanket."
I can’t imagine my business without you. You offer value for money; you are comfort at the end of the phone; I can always speak to you when I phone. You provide me with confidence and comfort.
Having the right team in place is crucial for a business to be successful. I regard you as part of this team. Whether it is advising on employee issues or informing me of new legislation, everything is covered and you provide me with peace of mind.
Sarah Aherne Owner Shwetan
"Their advice is always practical, timely, and affordable"
I can’t recommend Jacqui and her team at JMA highly enough.
They’ve been absolutely invaluable in keeping us on track with all things HR – from ensuring our policies, contracts, and company handbook are fully up to date, to helping us navigate compliance and advising on HR processes.
Their advice is always practical, timely, and affordable – a rare and much-needed combination! For any SME looking for reliable and expert HR support, Jacqui and her team are the kind of essential partners you want by your side.
Jacinta Scannell Managing Director, The Conference Collective
"Exceptionally professional, providing real life support"
I had the pleasure of working with Jacqui and her team for over ten years on a variety of topics, including TUPE, business acquisitions and disposals, corporate HR strategy, and both proactive and reactive HR matters.
During this time, I found Jacqui and her team to be exceptionally professional, providing real life support, guidance and protection for our business. Even whilst a wider support team was available, Jacqui herself would always be on hand to understand our business and provide the necessary support for both the company and me as an individual.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Jacqui and her team for any future opportunities.
Ben Thomas Chief Operating Officer - Highgate
"They are always on hand to help out when needed"
Jacqui and her team provide us with advice on all HR related matters. Their support and guidance has proved invaluable for our firm of our size. They are always on hand to help out when needed.
Jacqui has also assisted the firm with regards to company culture and really helped us to embed our culture and to define our values and purpose - a really beneficial exercise for any business.
