Organisational Design & Restructures · UK

Organisational design for the next stage of growth.

Access HR helps agencies and scaling businesses design the structure, roles and reporting lines they need to grow, and supports restructures so change is handled fairly, legally and well.

Definition

What is organisational design?

Organisational design is how a business structures its teams, roles, reporting lines and decision-making to deliver its strategy. Structures built for 20 people rarely still work at 60 or 100.

Signs your structure needs work
01
Founders have too many direct reports.
02
Roles overlap and accountability is unclear.
03
Decisions bottleneck at the top.
04
You're planning a restructure, merger or new team.
