Meet the Team
Having moved from Liverpool to Barrow-in-Furness in 2000, he became Fleet HR Director for one the UK’s leading shipping companies, James Fisher & Sons PLC. Leaving the security of the corporate world in 2009, Phil then set up his own company, TurnstoneHR, building this to a team of eleven staff and consultants before moving on to set up Phil Collier Associates to provide a broader range of support to businesses.
Nicola’s career has been spent in management and business development, predominantly in the education and training sector, working both in senior management positions and running her own training company. More recently, she is supporting local businesses with HR advice. Nicola also has vast experience of government funding and tendering and project management.
At PCA, our Associates are specialists in their respective fields and some of the UK’s leading experts. Our team ranges from experienced HR practitioners and workplace training instructors to quality management professionals, project managers and R&D accountants.
Our associates are hand-picked and have vast experience across a wide range of sectors and are all dedicated to helping your business deliver results, no matter your requirements.
What Our Clients Say
PCA assisted with networking and the sourcing of new clients, whilst also overseeing an advertising campaign and implementing a formatted structure for the recruitment and interviewing of a new accountant. Furthermore, Phil assisted with reviewing the HR aspect of the business including guidance on regulations and the drafting of employee contracts.
While we brought Phil on board to help with some immediate HR issues, his overall grasp of business, particularly those in the independent sector, brings a voice that resonates with all our aims and aspirations and an expertise which is both astute and re-assuring. His very human support during these difficult times has been tremendously generous and we look forward to his on-going support and advice as our industry re-builds and the new project’s we have initiated gather momentum.
