About Orbitus
Orbitus HR is the human resources arm of the Orbitus Group, a multidisciplinary professional services firm with offices in Cork and Kerry.
What sets Orbitus HR apart from a standalone HR consultancy is its position within the wider group where HR specialists work alongside Orbitus’s in-house solicitors, litigators, corporate governance specialists and tax advisors, meaning that clients can receive HR advice that has already been considered from legal and commercial angles.
The Orbitus HR team support businesses across the whole employee lifecycle, from routine people matters to larger organisational change. Services include strategic HR planning, compliance work such as employment contracts, policies and audits, and employee relations support for disputes and internal issues. It also helps with recruitment and onboarding, engagement and culture, performance management, management and leadership training, and reward and recognition frameworks. Businesses that may need help on an ad hoc basis can use its HR advisory service.
Orbitus HR is led by Jennifer O’Brien, Head of Human Resources, who brings more than 12 years of experience across HR consultancy and in-house industry roles. Jennifer holds a Bachelor of Commerce from University College Cork and a Master of Arts in Human Resource Management from Munster Technological University, along with CIPD certification. Orbitus HR also publishes regular guidance for Irish employers on topics such as seasonal hiring, family leave entitlements and the true cost of employing staff.
