Hi there!

I’m Melanie Folkes-Mayers, founder and CEO of Eden Mayers HR Consulting.

I’m an award-winning HR specialist, with over 20 years of Strategic and Operational HR and EDI experience across a range of industries including Retail, Real Estate, IT, Healthcare and Education. As the author of Leading for Growth, I am particularly passionate about developing proactive and inclusive, leaders and managers who support their teams to take ownership and deliver excellence.

Eden Mayers HR is my baby in more ways than one (my eldest child is called Eden!) and I am super proud of all that we have helped our clients to achieve.

See a few examples below -

Setting up a new enterprise from scratch isn’t easy, Eden Mayers HR made sure I had the right employee contracts, policies and processes set up from day one. They are also available to me through their retained service for ad-hoc advice and guidance, which I’ve found invaluable.
