Fair Prices
Hiring an in-house HR Manager costs between £35,000 and £55,000 per year. A Bear and Willow HR retainer gives you CIPD Level 7 qualified HR support, and Breathe HR software, for a fraction of that cost.
Our prices reflect the real value of expert, personalised HR, not a call centre, not a chatbot, not a generic template. Every client gets a named consultant who knows their business, their team, and their situation.
Good HR isn't a luxury. It's what keeps small businesses safe, compliant, and confident. We've simply made it affordable.
