What Our Clients Say

"There was a massive time saving for me and therefore value to business was significant as I could focus on what I needed. Our Recruitment Expert got it and she was a pleasure to deal with. She has a very clever approach, she took the time to understand my context and what the roles needed and what they didn't need. Her methodology seemed to have a lot of science behind it."

Judith Raj

Dentalife | General Manager

"I like the fact that you're a smaller business working with a small business and you bring that mentality to it. I like the people, I like the way your business is structured and that you're focused on an area of the market that is very different."

"Since engaging Employee Matters with Morgan as our dedicated Expert, we have made major improvements to our policies across the board that benefit both the company and our employees. We went from having virtually no policies to almost all that we require within months, and improved our processes at the same time. Overall Morgan saves us time when issues arise, her sound advice always leads us in the right direction. She is a trusted adviser."

Matthew Grove

GK Horizons | CEO

"We were referred to Employee Matters by our business coach, to provide coaching and support for our management team, make sure we were compliant with our HR responsibilities, and build on some of the structure that we already had in place. Employee Matters and the team were knowledgeable, responsive, flexible to the needs of our business, and Nardia became an integral part of our team.  Employee Matters will continue to be part of Technium as we grow, and I'd recommend anyone who has employees to not wait for a problem, but to take a proactive approach and engage with Employee Matters sooner rather than later."

Simon Pilkington

Technium | Managing Director

"Our Employee Expert excelled in delivering documents, getting outcomes and corralling people and we are on track to deliver the required policies by the end of the month. She developed the Program of Work that we need and we are working to that. She is adapting as she goes and is now part of operations team and the meetings, she cares about the business and the people."

Toby Roxburgh

Electromotiv | Managing Director

"The prospect of an employment dispute is terrifying to me, despite 40 years of legal experience, mainly in large firms. Now that I am the principal of a boutique planning and environmental law practice, employing 7 people, my salvation has been Natasha Hawker's book 'From Hire to Fire & Everything in Between'. It is a gem: well written and practical, it nicely balances my need for simplicity with sufficient detail to make it useful. The book is empowering in that it helps me identify the issues and questions I need to have in mind when analysing and addressing a problem. Thank you Natasha, you have literally improved the quality of my life by reducing my stress when it comes to dealing with employment matters."

Glen McLeod

Glen McLeod Legal | Principal

"As a US based business with employees in Australia, I was looking for assistance in managing our Australian arm, as well as helping me to navigate the Australian employment landscape. I have been using Employee Matters and Catherine for a while now, and have been really impressed how Catherine has helped me manage the team in Australia and has kept me abreast of HR, Fair Work and other legislative developments. Catherine’s guidance and advice has been so beneficial and I really appreciate all the extra support."

Ana Apostolescu

Crystal Equation Corporation | Director of HR & Operations

"I had the pleasure of having Natasha involved in our 2nd annual Workforce Analytics Summit in Sydney in 2020. Natasha was very well-prepared, highly professional, and an engaging panel moderator. She knew her topics well and engaged with the speakers prior to the event to be fully prepared for an outstanding session. Looking forward to working with her again in future!"

Nick Kenny

Aventedge | Conference Producer – ANZ & Asia

"Natasha was engaged to develop and facilitate a half day training session as part of our annual global conference. The brief was to educate our people leaders on hiring excellence and optimising team performance. As a fast growing small company, we were looking for someone to train our relatively new people leaders from both commercial and technical backgrounds (and multiple geographies). Natasha was willing to understand our organisation and particular needs, and tailor the content and workshop accordingly. She also set up an expectations model in advance so we could reflect on the desired outcomes and we debriefed against this model after the event. The training session itself was very well run, with a nice mix of theory, discussion and practice sessions for behavioural interviewing in small groups. Natasha's experience as well as her passion and enthusiasm for effectively recruiting and managing people is impressive. The session was very highly rated by our people leaders and we frequently hear people talking about Natasha's interviewing techniques. We would happily recommend Natasha to organisations seeking to invest in their recruiting and people-management capability."

Stuart FitzRoy

Rokt | Chief Product & Engineering Officer

"Natasha did a fantastic job of both presenting key information in a pre-planned structure that was informative and easy to understand, and dealing with the many questions that came thick and fast from Q and A. It was really great to get the opportunity to speak to an expert who could help with any challenges a company is facing in the HR space no matter how big or small. I particularly liked that Natasha’s focus wasn’t just advice on how to stay on the right side of employment law, but also how to build a company with great culture and a happy, motivated and cohesive workforce. Great Job Natasha, looking forward to learning more from you in the future."
