About Platinum HR
Platinum HR is an independent HR consultancy founded and led by a seasoned HR professional with over 15 years of experience across both the public and private sectors. Since 2008, I have worked with a wide range of organisations—from local authorities, schools, and NHS trusts, to SMEs, charities, and national corporations—providing expert guidance on all aspects of people management.
As a self-employed HR consultant, I offer flexible, hands-on support tailored to the unique needs of each client. My experience spans the full employee lifecycle, including recruitment and onboarding, employee relations, performance management, HR policy development, dispute resolution, redundancies, TUPE, and employment law compliance.
With a strong track record in navigating complex HR challenges and implementing practical, people-focused solutions, I work as a trusted partner to help businesses build solid HR foundations, stay legally compliant, and foster healthy, high-performing workplace cultures.
At Platinum HR, you get more than just advice—you get a dedicated, experienced professional committed to supporting your success.

Angeline Lloyd - Recruitment & Resourcing Specialist
With extensive experience within public sector and private sector involving working within HR and Talent Acquisition functions, I have led on the delivery of full recruitment campaigns across a wide range of job disciplines. This includes managing the entire recruitment lifecycle—from scoping requirements and writing compelling job adverts to sourcing, screening, and onboarding candidates. I’ve developed and implemented targeted attraction strategies, including direct sourcing, social media campaigns, and employer branding initiatives, particularly for hard-to-fill and specialist roles. My background also includes contributing to wider resourcing models, designing interview frameworks, and advising hiring managers to ensure recruitment is both inclusive and aligned with organisational goals. I am confident working in fast-paced environments, delivering multiple campaigns simultaneously, while maintaining a strong focus on compliance, candidate experience, and continuous improvement.
