About Daniel Holbrook

For the better part of a decade in HR consulting, I've worked with businesses of every size, across dozens of industries. Alongside an MBA, my qualifications include a Certificate IV in Government Investigations and a Certificate IV in Work Health and Safety. Brookvale HR Solutions exists because I kept seeing the same pattern everywhere I worked: growing businesses needed senior HR expertise but could not justify a full-time hire, and the consultancies they turned to kept sending junior staff. There had to be a better way to deliver HR support, and Brookvale HR Solutions is the result.

My services include workplace investigations, compliance audits, HR policy development, employee management guidance, and outsourced HR support. Every engagement is led by me personally.

You deal with Daniel directly. Every engagement, every call.

Why I Started Brookvale HR Solutions

My consulting career has spanned dozens of industries including defence, education, manufacturing, professional services, not-for-profit, sports, and hospitality, among others. My engagements have ranged from resolving individual performance matters to standing up entire HR frameworks for businesses that had never documented a policy. What every SME shared, regardless of sector, was the same constraint: large-employer compliance obligations without large-employer HR capability. The result was business owners explaining their situation to a different consultant every engagement.

The model

One Consultant. No Layers.

The model is simple: the person you speak with is the person handling your matter. No account managers, no junior handoffs, no layers between you and the advice you need.

That remains the foundation of every engagement. Whether it is a single phone call to talk through a tricky conversation with an employee, or a six-month compliance project involving audits, documentation, and training, the operating model does not change. You deal with me personally, every time.

How I work

How I Work

Starting With Your Situation

Every engagement starts with your situation. I assess your obligations under the Fair Work Act and relevant WHS legislation, identify the gaps that matter, and build recommendations from your specific compliance position, industry, and workforce. The work is shaped to your operations, not a template.

Scope of Work

From ad-hoc advisory calls through to ongoing HR support arrangements and major fixed-fee projects. A full overview is on the Services page, with transparent pricing on the Products and Pricing page. No lock-in contracts: if the engagement isn't delivering value, walk away. Clients range from growing SMEs through to organisations with over 200 employees, across virtually every sector.

Fractional HR

For businesses needing a senior HR presence without the overhead of a permanent hire. Consistent, embedded support without the full-time salary cost. Read more about Fractional HR
