HR Specialist Greg Cateley joins Everest Group
Hamilton, 7 November 2013 – One of the Waikato’s fastest-growing human resource consultancies, Everest Group, announced today that one of the country’s leading HR specialists, Greg Cateley, has joined its team.
With 19 years of experience under his belt, Greg spent the past four years as a human resource consultant with PwC in Hamilton.
His previous HR roles include working for some of the country’s leading employers such as Fonterra, ANZ Bank and LIC. His specialties include organisational development, employment relations, succession planning, performance management, training and development.
Everest Group Managing Director Senga Allen said, “We’re very excited about Greg joining our team. His skill set complements the strengths we’ve already established at Everest Group. The ability to tap into Greg’s deep HR knowledge and experiences is one more way we can continue offering added-value to our clients.”
Senga said adding Greg to the team is a continuation of the steady growth the company has experienced over the past five years. Everest Group has expanded its staff from just two to nine people within that timeframe.
“The solid growth we’ve experienced at Everest Group boils down to a combination of two key factors. First of all, we’ve benefited from the increasingly positive Waikato business climate.
“And, secondly, business owners are more and more cognizant of the fact that people management is not easy and our specialists can help demystify the function. Our team is definitely seeing managers taking more accountability for the performance of their staff and looking for innovative ways to increase their people management knowledge.”
The expansion of the Everest Group team has enabled the company to grow into a full-service HR consultancy offering practical support to business owners in four areas: recruitment, health and safety, human resource solutions, and training and development.
