Build Professional HR Infrastructure That Scales With Your Business

Salient Consulting helps growing Nigerian SMEs in manufacturing, real estate, and traditional sectors transition from informal management to sustainable, professional operations—without the cost of a full-time HR team.

Professional business handshake

Growing Without Professional HR Systems Is Holding You Back

Does your business face any of these challenges?

Compliance Risk

Your employment contracts are outdated or don't exist. You're not sure if you're compliant with Nigerian Labour Act. One employee dispute could expose you to significant liability.

Operational Chaos

You don't have clear policies, job descriptions, or performance standards. Every HR decision is ad-hoc. Your managers don't know how to handle discipline or termination properly.

Growth Bottleneck

You want to hire, but you don't have systematic recruitment, onboarding, or retention processes. Good people leave because there's no clear structure or career path.
