ABOUT EVA MEIKLE
With over 20 years of experience across HR, recruitment and talent acquisition, I created People Planet to support small and scaling businesses with both their people strategy and their hiring needs.Having worked in organisations where there was no dedicated HR function — or where a small team was stretched to its limits — I know how challenging it can be to manage people, drive growth, and still keep everything running smoothly. People Planet was built to be the partner I wished I’d had: practical, supportive, and there when you need it.I love working directly with businesses to help them navigate the people agenda — from building strong HR foundations and positive cultures, to hiring the right people who truly fit and add value. I take a pragmatic, commercial approach that helps you put the right measures in place to support your team through growth and change.At People Planet, we offer a full spectrum of HR services alongside specialist recruitment, including support for hard-to-hire technical roles such as data engineering and analytics. Everything we do is practical, effective, and aligned with your goals.Because every business is different, we offer flexible ways of working — whether that’s ongoing support, project-based work, or ad-hoc advice. Our aim is simple: to give you the right level of support, at the right time, so you can focus on running your business.Let’s start the conversation
