What our clients say

“We couldn’t do without Reality HR – how could I possibly think that we could? They take the pain out of HR – something I never thought I would say! I admit that when the CFO and I first came on board, we knew nothing about HR, and frankly couldn’t see the point. But now, it is the one area of the business where I can relax. We have a great relationship, and when there is a challenge I know they will come up with the right solution – which is a real weight off my mind.”

Tony Hughes, CEO
MET Group

“Reality HR is always our first port of call when we need HR support. Having worked with Reality HR previously, I knew we were in safe hands; they never fail to deliver on their promises and provide a service that is consistently professional. When we found ourselves in urgent need, Reality HR were able to act very quickly. Knowing we had a partner we could trust was invaluable, especially at a time when you need it the most.”
