What TPC Consulting does

TPC Consulting is a UK private limited company (registered 2021, company number 13184741) operating as a full-service HR consultancy for small and medium-sized enterprises. The firm is headquartered at 7 Bell Yard, London, WC2A 2JR, and delivers its services remotely across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, with no additional office locations disclosed. The business is independently owned with no evidence of external institutional investment, parent company, or M&A activity. The operating brand is "TPC Consulting - HR for SME."

The company's offering is organised around seven interconnected service pillars: Business Compliance, SME Starter Pack, Company Set Up, Organisational Design and Expansion, Culture and Employee Engagement, Learning and Development, and Strategic HR and Leadership Consultation. These services are delivered through remote HR consultancy and online HR support models, with bespoke documentation rather than templated solutions as the explicit design principle. The team comprises CIPD-accredited specialists with nearly 15 years of combined experience across multiple industries. A differentiating feature is the Employment Protection Cover, which provides tribunal defence and award coverage for clients who follow the firm's advice. The product surface also extends to a secondary use case: Skilled Worker Visa sponsorship advisory for UK employers hiring international talent.

TPC Consulting operates a sales-led, consultative go-to-market motion. Engagement is initiated via a free initial consultation and progresses into quote-based, project, retainer, or pay-as-you-go arrangements; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The customer base is segmented horizontally by company size, targeting SMEs that lack dedicated internal HR capacity, with a secondary use-case segment focused on Home Office-licensed employers seeking visa sponsorship support. No named customer logos, revenue figures, headcount, or funding history are disclosed in the public material reviewed. Distribution is exclusively direct, supported by a blog-driven content strategy, a LinkedIn company page, and an Instagram presence.

Core offering

TPC Consulting is a remote HR consultancy that delivers bespoke, end-to-end human resources services to UK small and medium-sized enterprises. Its core offering spans the full HR lifecycle, including employment compliance audits, policy and handbook documentation, company setup, organisational design and change management, culture and employee engagement, learning and development programmes, and strategic HR and leadership consultation for scaling SMEs. Services are delivered by CIPD-qualified consultants and accessed via a free initial consultation, with optional Employment Protection Cover that provides tribunal defence and award coverage when TPC's advice is followed.

Product overview

TPC Consulting is a full-service HR consultancy that offers a unified portfolio of consulting services for small and medium-sized businesses. The core offering consists of seven interconnected service pillars: Business Compliance, SME Starter Pack, Company Set Up, Organisational Design and Expansion, Culture & Employee Engagement, Learning & Development, and Strategic HR & Leadership Consultation. These services can be delivered through two models: directly by consultants or via Remote HR Consultancy Services and Online HR Support. The SME Starter Pack and Company Set Up provide foundational HR infrastructure, while Business Compliance ensures ongoing regulatory adherence. Organisational Design, Culture & Employee Engagement, and Learning & Development address growth and people development needs, with Strategic HR & Leadership Consultation serving as an umbrella advisory for high-growth scaling. The Remote HR Compliance Review is a standalone assessment service that supports the compliance pillar.

Direct peers

• Croner: Croner provides HR, employment law, health & safety and tax consultancy to UK businesses of all sizes, with a strong SME offering. Its advisory-plus-documentation bundle closely mirrors TPC's service pillars (Business Compliance, Company Set Up, Organisational Design).
• HR Dept: HR Dept is a UK franchise network of HR professionals providing outsourced HR support to SMEs. It is the closest structural analogue to TPC's model of dedicated local CIPD-qualified consultants serving small businesses with tailored HR advice.
• WorkNest: WorkNest (formerly WorkPlaceLaw) is a UK HR, employment law and health & safety consultancy serving SMEs and mid-market clients. Its fixed-fee, compliance-led proposition overlaps directly with TPC's SME Starter Pack and Business Compliance services.
• ELAS (Employment Law Advisory Services): ELAS provides UK employment law, HR and health & safety support primarily to SMEs. Like TPC, it sells fixed-fee retainers covering documentation, advice, and tribunal cover — directly comparable on both service mix and risk-sharing positioning.
• Peninsula Group: Peninsula is the largest UK provider of outsourced HR, employment law and health & safety services to SMEs. It competes head-to-head with TPC on SME HR advisory, documentation, and tribunal-defence-style service offerings.
• Citation: Citation is a UK HR, employment law and health & safety consultancy that serves SMEs with bundled advisory and documentation services — directly comparable to TPC's SME-focused, full-service HR consultancy model and its use of free consultations to convert prospects.

Broad incumbents

• MHR: MHR offers integrated HR, payroll, and people-management software and services to UK organisations, including SMEs. Its broader portfolio includes HR advisory adjacent to TPC's space, but it is primarily a software/outsourcing incumbent rather than a pure consultancy.
• Moorepay: Moorepay is a UK provider of payroll, HR and auto-enrolment services to SMEs and mid-market employers. While broader in scope, it competes with TPC on outsourced HR support and employer compliance for UK small businesses.

Others

• Access People (Access Group): Access Group offers a suite of HR, payroll and people-management solutions (including acquired products like People HR and Cascade) used by UK SMEs. It is an ecosystem/adjacent provider that increasingly bundles the kind of HR advisory TPC offers into its software stack.

Emerging players

• Breathe HR: Breathe is a UK HR software platform built for small businesses, combining HRIS tooling with HR document templates. It is an emerging tech-enabled alternative that addresses the same SME pain points TPC's consultancy solves, but via self-serve software rather than bespoke advice.
