Who we are

About Paul Sackett

I began my HR career 30 years ago, however I didn’t start in HR. I began my career in sales. With an under graduate degree in Public Relations, I started professionally in Advertising Sales working in both radio and newspaper. This experience allowed me the opportunity to get to know a wide variety of businesses and their challenges.

It was while I was working in foodservice sales that I was asked to attend a sales training program.
