⭐️ About the Event


The HR Managers’ Community is designed for hands-on HR professionals who are often expected to have all the answers - on people, policy, strategy, and everything in between.

Our sessions offer a relaxed, supportive space to share experiences, ask questions, and learn from peers who are facing the same challenges within the North East region. This is a practical, collaborative environment for HR Managers who want to gain actionable insights, build local connections, and confidently implement effective solutions across their teams.

  • High-Quality Networking – Build a robust, local network of HR peers in the North East.
  • Actionable Insights – Leave with practical tools, policy ideas, and fresh thinking you can apply directly to your role.
