We are beyond excited to announce that Ig-hr has been named a finalist for the North West Start-Up Awards 2025 in the Business, Consulting, and Management category. This is a significant milestone in our journey, and we couldn’t be prouder of how far we’ve come.

This nomination is more than just an award - it’s a recognition of our hard work, our passion for people, and our unwavering commitment to making a real difference in HR consulting. We founded Ig-hr with a vision: to create an HR consultancy that puts people at the heart of every business decision, to make great places to work. Today, that vision has been recognised on a regional stage, and we are incredibly grateful.

The Power of Partnership: How Jennie & Dan Built Ig-hr

Behind every great business is a story, and ours begins with a partnership built on trust, expertise, and a shared passion for HR. From day one, Jennie brought her deep industry knowledge and strategic thinking, while Dan infused the business with innovative approaches and a relentless drive to put the human back into human resources. Together, we have turned Ig-hr from an idea into a thriving consultancy, supporting businesses across the North West with practical, people-focused HR solutions.

Why This Nomination Matters

The North West Start-Up Awards are designed to celebrate the most ambitious, innovative, and impactful businesses in the region. To be named a finalist in the Business, Consulting, and Management category is an incredible achievement, especially considering the level of talent and competition in this space. This recognition is not just about Ig-hr as a business, it’s about the clients we’ve helped, the businesses we’ve supported, and the positive changes we’ve driven in the HR landscape. 

It’s proof that what we’re doing matters, everyone should have HR and that our approach is making an impact.

A Moment of Gratitude

We wouldn’t be here without the support of so many incredible people. To our clients, who have trusted us with their HR needs, thank you for believing in our approach and allowing us to be part of your journey.

As we look ahead to the awards ceremony, we are more motivated than ever to continue innovating and making a meaningful impact in the world of HR.

Here’s to a win, and moving forward to the National Start-Up Awards for 2025.
