We founded Trinity People Partners because we believe good HR doesn't need to be complicated to be done properly. Between us, we bring over 20 years of senior HR and employee relations experience to organisations that need clear, credible people support without the overheads of a full in-house team.

We work with businesses, helping them manage change, resolve complex people issues, and make confident, commercially sensible decisions about their people.

Sheldhe Osunsanya, Co-founder

I'm an Employee Relations specialist with a CIPD Level 7 qualification and over ten years of senior HR experience, including complex casework, TUPE, tribunal-level work, and acquisitive group contexts.

I've worked across generalist HR and specialist ER roles, giving me a grounded understanding of both the day-to-day realities organisations face and the high-stakes casework that needs real expertise. I'm driven by a straightforward belief that HR done well protects the business and treats people fairly - the two aren't in tension. I also coach managers through difficult conversations and help leadership teams reach commercially viable decisions when the people stakes are high.

Claire Phipps-Purcell, Co-founder

I'm an HR professional with 10 years' experience and a CIPD Level 7 qualification, working as an HR consultant and People Partner. I help organisations manage change, resolve complex people issues, and make confident, commercially sensible decisions with an approach that's practical and straightforward: I listen, understand what the business needs, and turn that into clear action.

My experience spans organisational design, restructuring, redundancy and TUPE transfers, alongside the practical work that keeps a business running like policy development, succession planning, and coaching managers through difficult conversations. I enjoy building relationships that help managers lead their teams with confidence.

Our approach

We care about doing HR properly, but we don't believe that means making it complicated. Whether you need experienced support through a period of change, a complex people challenge, or a defined project, we bring clear, credible expertise that works for your organisation and treats your people fairly.
