Introducing FoundrKit
HR templates for UK startups and small businesses
Hiring your first employees and not sure where to start? We’ve got you.
FoundrKit® provides everything you need to make your first hires and manage your team with confidence.
Our Vision and Mission
To become the UK’s most trusted HR toolkit for startups and small business owners. We want to give small business owners the confidence to hire and manage people without needing an HR department.
Why?
Not all startups and small businesses can afford an HR department or legal/consultancy support when they’re starting. For less than the cost of one hour of HR advice, you can buy everything you need to get started.
Our Clients
Founder? Director? Small business owner? Café down the road? We’re here for you.
Ready-made HR documents for your first and next hires
What we do
You’re searching Google, government guidance, reading ACAS, downloading random templates, paying a consultant.
That’s wasted hours and wasted money that could be better spent developing your business.
We offer professionally written HR document kits (FoundrKits) for founders and small business owners. Editable and customisable forms, templates, policies and practical guidance for your business.
Start with our First Hire Kit: contract, offer letter, handbook and core policies for your first employee.
Need a bit more support? We also offer professional HR services and consulting. Contact us to find out more.
