Our Team

Azuhr HR Consultants are, first and foremost, business people. The team at Azuhr combines deep understanding and years of industry experience with an objective external viewpoint. We pride ourselves on being pragmatic and progressive. We focus on the facts, delivering HR solutions that work for you and your business. Peitra Moffat, Managing Director of Azuhr, shares her view on why Azuhr equals unrivalled HR.

Love it or hate it, Human Resources is part and parcel of running a business. ​

You might plan meticulously, seek the most reliable advice and have the finest of intentions, but even the best leader will face HR and ER issues. And the truth is, more often than not, the issues that arise are no fault of your own. You might simply hire the wrong person, a law may change, an employee lodges a complaint or the union knocks on your door. Suddenly you’re spending all your time trying to fix the issue while your business suffers. The key to getting back on track is to manage and resolve these HR issues quickly, effectively and appropriately.

I’ve been working in HR for over 20 years, in Australia, and around the globe, and I’ve seen HR at its best and at its worst. Managers tearing their hair out in frustration at the HR police directing people based on policies that don’t fit their business. Acquisitions where no one bothered to ask about how the team would deal with people who were impacted by the merger. Unsupported managers creating legal issues by acting on performance issues, ignoring complaints, or dealing with unions, without sufficient support.

But I’ve also been a part of HR when it works. When the HR partner seamlessly integrates into the management team. Where the HR function supports and drives the business’s objectives. This is the level of support we strive to deliver to each and every one of our clients, because, at Azuhr, we believe your business deserves unrivalled HR delivered by professionals you can trust.

For HR and your people strategies to succeed, it always comes down to three fundamental factors.

The first is the investment you make in people management. This isn’t about how much you spend, but rather how and where you allocate your time and resources. Effective HR is an investment in mitigating risk and opening opportunities for your business. Your investment needs to be tailored to support your business drivers.
The second is the quality and experience of the individuals who are looking after your people. This isn’t just your HR department but includes your leadership and management teams. Progressive HR doesn’t just react to the problem but supports the development of all of your people.
The third and most important factor is how well your HR support understands your business. When your HR support truly understands your business drivers, they can tailor your people strategy and operations to deliver tangible results. When all of your management team, including HR, are focused on the same revenue building, risk-mitigating and cost-effectiveness objectives, HR simply becomes another pillar of your business strategy.

At Azuhr, we differentiate ourselves from the crowd by committing to you that we not only want to understand your business but that we need to understand it to advise you appropriately.

Azuhr partnered with Kingston Reid because we could both see an opportunity to deliver a new level of HR – to create an unrivalled service for businesses. While there are many consulting businesses and excellent HR people in Australia, there are few that can offer our solutions:

  • HR people who ‘get it’ – who are first and foremost business people, who understand businesses and business operations as well as being fluent in HR strategy and operations;
  • Professionals who are unrivalled in their experience, across various industries and geographies; and
  • Experts backed and supported by Kingston Reid, so we have access to the latest updates and best legal support in the country.

When you engage Azuhr, we see ourselves as part of your team (even if we’re not sitting on your books!). We make it our business to take care of your HR, so you can keep doing what you do best – growing your business.
