My name is Anita Grist and Kentish is my middle name, which has historically passed down through my family. I was born and live in Kent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Kentish HR was formed in 2015.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">I have gained 20 years of experience working in HR roles including as a Regional Employment Consultant for one of the UK\u2019s largest HR consultancy firms in the UK. I hold a Certificate in Personnel in Practice, a Post Graduate Diploma in HR Management and I am a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Other accolades are:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Won award at Kent HR Conference for 75% reduction in long-term sickness absence levels. Achieved through assessment and implementation of tighter controls.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">100% success rate at Employment Tribunal. This is testament to my attention to detail around employment law when dealing with HR matters.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243;
