About Us
At PortWood People Solutions, we believe great businesses are built by great people. Small business owners shouldn’t have to navigate complex HR challenges alone, but hiring a full-time HR professional isn’t always practical.
We provide small businesses with experienced, practical HR support without the cost of a full in-house department. From employee relations and compliance to policies, payroll support, and workplace best practices, we partner with organizations to provide reliable guidance.
Our approach is simple: be approachable, practical, and people-focused. When you work with us, you gain a trusted HR partner who understands your business and helps you build a workplace that supports both your team and your growth.
Owners
PortWood People Solutions was founded by two experienced human resources leaders who share a passion for helping small businesses build strong, healthy workplaces.
Together, they bring more than 30 years of combined experience across human resources strategy, employee relations, compliance, recruiting, organizational development, and leadership support. Throughout their careers, they have partnered with organizations of all sizes, helping leaders navigate the complexities of managing people while building cultures where employees can thrive.
After years of working inside growing organizations, they recognized a common challenge: many small businesses need expert HR support but don’t have the size or resources to hire a full-time HR professional. PortWood People Solutions was created to bridge that gap.
Their approach is grounded in practical advice, strong relationships, and a belief that HR should be approachable and solutions-focused. By partnering closely with business owners and leaders, they help create workplaces where both businesses and their people can succeed.
