Interview With Marie Haywood, HR Manager At Ellis Jones Solicitors

We recently interviewed Marie Haywood @ Ellis Jones Solicitors. Here is a snippet of her interview;

"I am very passionate about H.R. and it having a positive impact on the business and staff. I encourage our managers to know their employees, recognize and work with people's strengths and weaknesses and celebrate their differences. Working in a service orientated business means that the people are your main asset so it is important to ensure that they are engaged. I think you need assertiveness, resilience and tenacity in this role. You need to be able to have the confidence of the Partners and the trust of the staff. It is important to react quickly to situations in order that people do not lose faith in your ability to get the task done whatever it is. It is about delivering a service and delivering it well. As in all H.R. roles, you need to be a good mediator and be incredibly diplomatic and remain calm in sometimes adverse situations."
