Based predominantly in Glasgow, Louise McCosh has a hugely varied role as Partner at AAB People and part of the AAB Group. Louise has a background in HR and Employment Law, and has 15 years of experience in employment compliance, mainly in a consultancy environment.
Louise’s role is to provide leadership and strategic direction to ensure we deliver a great client service, alongside growing and driving the business forward. Louise has the pleasure of working with an exceptional team of employment compliance professionals dedicated to delivering a first-class service to our clients in HR & Employment Law and Health & Safety.
“Clients come to us for support with HR & Employment Law and Health & Safety to simplify the complicated, to provide proactive and practical solutions and options to deal with the issues they are facing – they ultimately look to us to provide reassurance on handling their people matters.
It’s really important to me to build strong and lasting working partnerships with clients where they feel they can really trust you to deliver as an extension of their team. The foundations of this for me are built on providing solutions-driven advice, which is pragmatic and commercial, and to deliver this in a personable way.”
“The best piece about working with clients is to see how the HR & Employment Law and Health & Safety solutions we have implemented have helped their business.
AAB Group has strong core values which really resonate with me, and my favourite value we talk about has got to be “Clients are our passion”. To me, this passion couldn’t be more evident across the group – we are a truly dedicated group of professionals who are relentless in our dedication to supporting clients to achieve their goals. I went into employment compliance because I wanted to help people achieve their goals, and I get to do this every day working with our clients delivering tailored and flexible solutions which ultimately provide reassurance and help our clients sleep at night.”
“A pet hate I have about the people profession is we are seen as a bureaucratic function creating red tape that gets in the way of business. That couldn’t be further from the truth, particularly in our approach to working with clients – we want to support and collaborate with employers to navigate what is an increasingly litigious world of work avoiding risk and getting the best from their people.
The employment compliance market is littered with identikit providers who take a one size fits all approach, locking clients into lengthy contracts and forcing them to jump through unnecessary hoops. Our service is the exact opposite and is designed to disrupt this trend in the market, and deliver what we believe is most important to clients centred on delivering tailored, flexible solutions which fundamentally meet their needs.”
“Alongside in-depth knowledge and experience in employment compliance, my key strength is in understanding how to grow and scale businesses, whether that is in working with clients or in the people business itself. I also have a strong ability to think outside the box which I can use to visualise and plan how to get from A to B delivering solutions that meet the needs of our clients and the business.
A client once said to me that I am the most commercial people professional they have worked with – they said I get what’s critical to their business and am then able to support them with what they need to tackle issues head on.”
“It couldn’t be a better time to be part of AAB People which is growing and delivering tangible results for clients, and I get a real buzz from being part of that journey. The AAB Group is growing rapidly which is hugely exciting to be part of, particularly as the group has developed a real breadth of service for clients to tap into.”
