What our clients say

I know I’m in good hands with People in Mind. I first started working with LesleyAnn and her team 9 years ago, when I was setting up my first business and found myself swamped by job applicants. People in Mind helped make sense of it all and, since then, there are not many areas of HR and payroll that we haven’t covered. They are exactly what I want in an HR Advisor - professional, reassuring and with absolute integrity.

Debbie SimesOwner & Manager - Footloose Store

People in Mind are easy to deal with and really responsive. We signed up to their payroll service, and it made it so much simpler for us as a new business to come to grips with staff and wages. We also called on them for advice on employment related matters that cropped up in the day-to-day. They are one of those businesses that make life easier for other businesses!

Karl BaldwinFormer Managing Director - KTB Planning Consultants

When we need HR advice, we call on People in Mind, and have done for many years now. Getting the correct advice, that meets the legislation, and following the correct processes is top priority for us as an employer. We have total trust in LesleyAnn and her team.

Christine StevensonBusiness Manager - accounted4 Chartered Accountants

Working with People in Mind, I don’t have to worry about payroll. It’s all taken care of. They have processed our payroll for over 5 years now, and regularly do things to streamline it so it runs smoothly at our end and theirs. They understand our business and idiosyncrasies and I know I can pick up the phone anytime and ask them off the cuff questions on anything to do with payroll legislation or HR.

Gareth PritchardDirector - Kindyz of Queenwood

People in Mind are there when we need a sounding board and expertise in handling employment issues. They give us peace of mind knowing we’re meeting our legal requirements, because they absolutely ensure the i’s are dotted and the t’s are crossed when it comes to our employment agreements and processes.

Chris MorrisManaging Director - Powdercoating NZ

People in Mind impressed us from day one with the ease they tackled our project and the knowledge they have at their fingertips. We have the utmost confidence in their work, and the policies they have written for us cover all the bases – legal, logistical and relevant to our day-to-day.

Andrew DouglasFormer Deputy Principal Human Resources - St Peter’s School

Outsourcing payroll to People in Mind works really well for us. We started using People in Mind because we had a huge workload and were struggling to find time to do all the administration. It definitely saves us time and money because their payroll process each month is so quick and easy for us, and we know the payroll and IRD filing is being done accurately and on time.

Harland SinclairGeneral Manager - Emma’s Food Bag

People in Mind provides an amazing customer experience. I needed documentation for a contractor, and it was so nice to be able to explain what I required and to have it come back exactly as I wanted.
We did it all over the phone (which was perfect for me) and it took no time at all. I had a draft from LesleyAnn that afternoon, and the completed document the next day.

Amanda HemaDirector - The Stakeholder Agency

The professionalism, care, commitment and guidance provided to us by the People in Mind team has been exemplary. From position analysis, job description formulation, contracts, on-boarding plans, leave requirements to specialised HR support have ensured we have the right systems and processes in place to support the Chamber.
