The Empowering People Group
A group of companies with one focus: enhancing people performance to drive business success.
Creating the best HR focused group in the UK
AdviserPlus, founded in 2001, initially specialised in outsourced employee relations managed services for large corporate clients. Over time, our offerings have evolved in response to the changing needs of our clients and the broader market.
In 2016, AdviserPlus was acquired by Limerston Capital, a private equity firm with a vision to build the best HR-focused group in the UK. The companies within the group are led by experts in HR who are passionate about enhancing people performance to drive business success.
Our Group is committed to developing HR technology solutions that transform HR and empower managers to self-serve people matters without HR intervention every time. We provide HR experts and people solutions to support organisations and employees through workplace transitions, digital learning solutions to help boost managerial capability, and insights and people analytics that enable HR leaders to drive strategic business change.
