HR DEPT SEES RECORD GROWTH

HR professionals who have joined the HR Dept network are reporting excellent revenue growth in the last nine months.

Managing director, Pia Engstrom, who in October 2020 took over full ownership of the Australian business (HR Dept is a UK-based business model), says, “While the increase in revenue from the franchisees is outstanding, another pleasing aspect of their performance has been the encouraging increase in retained clients.

“This demonstrates that our franchisees are understanding the model better and that the HR Dept is becoming a more trusted brand in the market,” Pia told Inside Franchise Business.

There are currently five franchises in Western Australia, four in NSW and one in Victoria who have driven their businesses to new heights, she reported.

The most standout performance is a revenue increase of more than 300 per cent for the top performing franchisee. Average franchisee business growth lifted by

112 per cent.
