About Us

We believed there was room for better employee benefits
When founders Tristram Hawthorn and James Hall met Karl Whitaker, they all firmly believed there was room for something better in our industry. It’s clear, as large mergers continued, that the sprint towards the biggest employers (and their related fee revenues) was seeing two outcomes – fee escalation and a mid-sector void.

Supporting your company, no matter how large or small
This void was leaving employers below 1000 employees without choice and value. This gap in the market has given us a great opportunity to support companies however large or small the workforce. Additional partners have joined since then and the team is now perfectly positioned to tackle both of these challenges – fee value and a top consultancy service for employers of any size.
