Monette Gildenhuys, Senior People & Culture Advisor at Santa Fe Shutters Limited

“I’ve used HRIS systems throughout my whole career, so I knew what I wanted and what wasn’t going to work for us. One of the things that made me really enthusiastic about Employment Hero was the survey features, and the coaching options.”

Stef Moser, People & Culture Manager at HUD Studio

“Our HR admin just so much more streamlined and slick now. Everything is in one place and it makes it so much easier for our team.”
