“Going through NHS Voluntary Redundancy, especially from the place and role that I loved, was heartbreaking. Paul assisted me with the VR process efficiently and professionally. He accommodated my request for after-hours calls. We went through every single clause, and Paul translation helped me understand those clauses in layman's terms and what I was signing for. He handled comms with HR directly to clear up outstanding queries, and continued patiently and promptly responding to a query I had post-redundancy. I highly recommend Paul for anyone navigating an employment transition.”
