Michael Mead - HR Consultant 

Lawyers are the same as doctors: the only difference is that doctors might rob you and might kill you!

Lawyers only rob you!

I've been working in HR for more than thirty years and have been a member of the UK's only professional human resources body since the late 1980's.  

I'm a Chartered Member of the CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development) and have worked nationally and internationally as an HR manager/director and consultant.   

To help me have a better understanding of business I completed my MBA in 1989.  Other training and experience that has helped me work with people both inside and outside of organisations are listed on the following page.

During my career I've managed human resources in organisations employing between 6 and 500 people. Internationally I've worked in Europe, Saudi Arabia, North America and South Africa.

The business sectors I've worked in include:

• Manufacturing
• Distribution
• Telecoms
• Insurance
• IT
• Oil Exploration
• Marine Electronics
• Local Government
  

The organisations where I've completed consultancy, interim HR management and/or training assignments include:

• GKN
• Ford and Jaguar cars
• Bass Brewers
• The Royal Air Force
• Aviva
• Pet Plan and Cornhill Insurance
• Southern Time Systems
• Barnardos
• Hydralectric
• Carter Lithographics
• Salter Associates
• Blagbrough Contracts
• Energys

Relevant Experience

Most of my work experience has been with small to medium sized private sector organisations. I understand the important issues in owner-managed companies, the level of support that's needed and how important it is - I also understand how and why mistakes can occur.
