Meet Your Expert: Paula Maidens

Hi, 👋 I’m Paula Maidens – a serial entrepreneur, business adviser and hiring expert with over 17 years of experience in HR and recruitment. I began my career in banking, transitioned into recruitment, and spent several years as a Corporate Recruiter. In 2010, I started my own HR Consulting biz in 2010, followed by two more ventures, and sold one in 2020 with a full team in place! 

Specialising in small business since 2015, I've literally interviewed 1000s of candidates both for other people and my own teams. I've packed all of that knowledge and experience into this easy-to-follow system, designed to help you avoid the common pitfalls of hiring and build a team that aligns with your vision. 

It’s my mission to empower entrepreneurs like you to step into your leadership potential in a way that feels authentic and effective. You deserve to achieve your business goals without burning out or giving up your life. 

If you've got big dreams, you already know you can't do it all alone... and learning to hire right is a critical part of your journey to success. 

I'm here to guide you through it. Let's go! 🚀

Jane McFadden, Director - Body and Mind

"Changing the recruitment approach and putting some of the frameworks into practice has really given me a lot more time, and made the process easier to select people as only the right people are responding to the job ad. It has definitely created me more time and money"

Bonny Marsh, Director - Truii

"This course and working with Paula has transformed how I think about my role in the business. She supported me from a reactionary place to a considered approach. She has a wealth of knowledge and a generosity of spirit so that you feel like you have your own personal business champion. Thank you Paula!"

Sophia Pallas, Copywriter & Launch Strategist

"Before I went through the hiring process, I knew I was missing out on opportunities because I was so bogged down in doing ALL the things. I feel so much more relaxed and organised now. It’s incredible how having an amazing person to lean on in my business has shifted things for me. I can actually breathe again and get on with the stuff that I’m great at. And she just does things – before I even ask!"

Amy Cox, Owner - Playful Families

"This course opened my eyes to what I needed to do to take my business to the next level.  I know now that without this basic framework, I was wasting time and money and just hoping for the best! This is invaluable for me as a business owner."

Kate Rayment, Director - LuvYourPhone

"I am really enjoying the course. I am already using the techniques to better explain my expectations to my team and it's helping me to keep my head in the right space. Such great timing, Thank you!"

Laura MacLeod, Founder - MacLeod Education

I really like the way you broke down a plan and the team were accountable for specific results. I don't feel uncomfortable giving feedback but to hear your language in your recorded example was really helpful.
