HR & onboarding automation for multi-site operators.

Most multi-site businesses lose 20–30 hours a week to staff admin that should run itself. We build the automations that close that gap — connecting your HR platform, payroll and rota tools into a system that actually works together.

The problem

Staff admin is eating your operations budget.

New starters fall through the cracks

Contracts sent late, right-to-work checks missed, induction docs buried in email threads. Every site manager doing it differently.

Payroll is a monthly fire drill

Hours from one system, holidays from another, salary changes on a spreadsheet. Someone reconciling it all at 10pm the night before submission.

Labour costs surface too late

You find out you ran 38% labour in week four, not week two. By then the damage is done and there's nothing to adjust.

HR queries clog your managers

Staff texting managers directly for rotas, holiday balances, payslips. Answered inconsistently. Managers context-switching all day.

What we build

Concrete deliverables, not slide decks.

Every engagement ends with working automations in production. Here's what that looks like for HR and onboarding.

01

Self-serve onboarding flow

New starter receives a single link. They complete contracts, right-to-work uploads, bank details and emergency contacts in one flow — without a manager chasing seven separate emails. Data lands in BreatheHR automatically.

02

BreatheHR + Xero Payroll sync

Salary changes, new starters and leavers flow from BreatheHR to Xero without manual re-entry. Payroll submission becomes a review, not a data-entry exercise.

03

Weekly labour-cost reporting

Every Monday morning, site managers and ops directors receive a labour % snapshot for the prior week — by site, by department. Built from rota and payroll data, delivered before the working week begins.

04

WhatsApp AI staff assistant

Staff message a WhatsApp number to check holiday balances, request shifts and get policy answers. The AI handles it. Managers stop being the first point of contact for every HR query.
