Hay Group Europe

ABOUT THIS COMPANY:

The king of HR

If a company needs help with its staff, whether to develop, motivate or train them, then Hay Group is the consultancy they go to first.  The 66-year-old firm specialises in human resources, and is the creator of the most widely used job evaluation methodology in the world, used by over 8,000 organisations.  The Philadelphia-based firm uses the research it carries out on a company and translates it into what it calls “actionable insights”, passing these on to the firm, which enable it to improve business strategies and boost staff morale.  But above all else, by using a range of leadership and talent assessments, Hay Group makes sure that its clients’ staff are doing the job that is right for the skills they possess.  In addition to carrying out customer and employee surveys to confirm that clients are on the right track, the consultancy also provides clients with information on reward services for employees and how to build an effective organization.

The firm operates in four practice areas.  The first, leadership and talent services, offers capability assessment, leadership transformation and talent management services.  The reward services practice area offers clients help with reward strategies, total reward framework advice, executive rewards, job evaluation, reward information services and benefits advice.  The building effective organisations practice area involves clarifying strategy and business models, developing ‘fit for purpose’ operating models, organizational design and culture transformation.  The employee and customer surveys groups cover employee engagement and customer research services.
