Business challenges today are people challenges, and vice versa. Employee productivity and enterprise profitability remain front and center for human resources (HR) leaders. Yet it’s not just about HR operating excellence and service delivery – those are given.
It is also about world-class talent and workplace solutions, analytics, and transformation capabilities, which accelerate the goals of the business. Many of the core challenges are familiar – operations, organization, culture, change, leadership, compensation, rewards, pensions. But managing them across today’s global talent market with multiple generations of workers is more complex than ever.
Getting it right requires the combination of global HR and deep business knowledge. With industry insights and proven experience our Human Capital professionals specialize in integrating business, HR and talent strategies to create business value through people. Our human capital services include the following:
We help clients develop job descriptions and specifications for senior vacancies, and help to attract, select and interview candidates. In addition, we maintain a database of qualified professionals looking to progress their careers. We are able to offer potential candidates to clients looking to fill vacancies quickly.
Psychometric assessment tools help clients assess employee competence in selected skills and their potential for future growth. At indconsulting we use international psychometric evaluation tools which can be used as part of the recruitment process and for career planning, particularly when considering a promotion or transfer to a new career line and level of responsibility.
The results can be used to develop individual training plans and careers, and in succession planning. It can also be a powerful tool during team building and team selection.
Organisations have recognized that success can only be achieved through the effective participation of their people in a structured system. Our approach provides an organisation with the tools geared towards remaining competitive and efficient in the industry. We are able to assess the organisation and, if needed, put in place appropriate systems, which capture relationships, roles and responsibilities, and establish reporting lines.
Restructuring involves the process of redesigning structures; grouping roles and activities to coordinate the relationships among the various hierarchical lines within the organisation. Restructuring usually follows an organisation review and will reflect the way the organisation is organised and coordinates work.
A job analysis involves the gathering of job related information in an organisation. The information collected describes the tasks and responsibilities, level of supervision and authority, and working conditions that characterize the job. Job analysis can be linked to job evaluations; the purpose of which is to establish the relative ranking of jobs within an organisation by means of a systematic and detailed analysis, and valuing of the job content.
We help clients develop and implement integrated personnel policies aimed at creating and sustaining the most productive environment. In addition, we offer advice on the selection and implementation of computerized personnel information systems.

We analyze salaries and benefits for our clients with a view to recommending adjustments to remuneration packages. This service is provided through a specific remuneration survey. Our clients typically use this service when recruiting new staff or when determining annual salary increases. The overall purpose of the remuneration review is to assist organisations design objective remuneration structures that are linked to an internal grading structure.
We run management assessment centers with the aim of assessing individuals at all levels. An assessment center is a program of tests, work simulation situations, exercises and interviews that are designed to measure and assess a wide range of abilities, skills, behavioural characteristics and potential required for effective performance on the job.
To build on strengths and overcome weaknesses identified from the management assessment center, we design, develop and facilitate in-house training in managerial skills. By using other specialists from within the practice, we can also provide training in financial management, information technology and internal audit.
