Harmonise HR's celtic double spiral logo, symbolising balance and harmony in workplace solutions
Our Logo

The double spiral is an ancient Celtic symbol that represents balance, symmetry and equilibrium, characteristics that we bring to all our interactions with you as a Harmonise HR client.

Harmonise HR co-founders, Donna and Dave, experienced HR professionals dedicated to supporting businesses and employees
As a Harmonise HR client, you’ll deal directly and personally with Donna, Dave or Kara.

Introducing Donna and Dave

Donna and Dave created Harmonise HR in early 2021 to provide veterinary business owners with knowledgeable and professional guidance and support on the full spectrum of HR matters, which are essential for any business in Australia. They are passionate about building strong and positive long-term relationships with their clients, working closely with them to understand the whole picture of each client’s HR needs.

Both come from Celtic backgrounds, Dave from Ireland and Donna from Scotland, so they share similar values and backgrounds and a keen sense of humour. Originally good friends and now partners in business and life, they have worked and lived together for over ten years.

We've been super happy with all of Donna and Dave's help with HR at our clinic. I purchased a clinic last year and was worried about the HR side of things, but Harmonise made things so easy. The HR and WHS policy packages were brilliant and I felt at ease knowing there was some policies in place right from the start. It is easy to reach out for support and they're always there to help.

Harmonise HR has been a game changer for our clinic. Donna and Dave are there to advise us on any HR issues with the correct advice and strategies on how to implement their advice. They have saved my sanity as a manager and our staff feel supported with any HR questions they have. We were previously with a large company who gave us incorrect information.I truly believe if we had not found Harmonise HR we could be in a world of hurt with all of the rules and regulations that constantly occur. I can focus on managing my clinic knowing that I have them to back me up with HR concerns. They are so easy to talk to and incredibly efficient. I highly recommend their services.

I completed a one-day course with Donna from Harmonise HR and I’m still impressed by how valuable it was. Donna is an exceptional trainer — knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely committed to helping everyone grow. She explained concepts clearly, used real-world examples, and created a supportive environment where it was easy to ask questions and participate.Even though it was only a one-day session, I walked away with practical skills and insights that I’ve already been able to apply at work. Donna’s energy and professionalism made the day both enjoyable and impactful.Highly recommend Donna and Harmonise HR to anyone looking for quality training and a great learning experience!

The team provided clear and practical guidance, showing genuine understanding of the sector we operate in and tailoring their approach to suit our organisation’s environment.They conducted the successful recruitment of our new HR team, delivered an in-house training session for the Executive Team to strengthen leadership understanding of HR practices, and reviewed our policies and structural elements to support a stronger HR function overall.The entire team was professional, responsive, and highly engaged. Often turning work around within hours. Their expertise, flexibility, and partnership approach made a significant difference.I highly recommend Harmonise HR for their professionalism, deep sector knowledge, and genuine commitment to delivering practical, effective solutions.
We have recently been working with the team at Harmonise HR to update our HR suite, and have some specific guidance.They have been really supportive, clear and easy to work with, building our confidence along the way.Highly recommend for professional, responsive HR support.
