At WHEL Consulting, we believe that simple, practical solutions can lead to powerful change. Our mission is to help small to medium businesses build better, more effective workplaces by focusing on the four pillars that define our name: Workplace systems, HR and Health, Ergonomics, and Leadership — that’s the W-H-E-L (and yes, it’s meant to sound like “well,” because we’re all about working well).
Whether you're navigating compliance, developing your leaders, improving team wellbeing, or streamlining your systems, our solutions are grounded in real-world experience and designed to make things easier, clearer, and more effective.

Helping you work WHEL
About Us
We focus on what matters most: strong leadership, clear systems, safe work practices, and a culture that supports people to do their best work. Our name — WHEL — reflects our commitment to Workplace, HR/Health, Ergonomics, and Leadership, and our approach always comes back to one principle: better workplaces start with simple, effective solutions.
At WHEL Consulting, we believe in keeping things practical, evidence-based, and grounded in the real world. We know that every business is different — and that what works in theory must also work on the ground. Our goal is to equip small and medium businesses with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to lead well, work safely, and build positive, productive workplaces.
As a partnership between an Occupational Therapist and an Organisational Psychologist, we bring a unique blend of practical insight and professional expertise. Claire brings deep knowledge of ergonomics, injury prevention, leadership and workforce development in high-risk industries. Julie brings strategic people management experience and a real-world understanding of what it takes to lead well and manage safely. Together, we deliver advice, training, and systems that actually work — not just look good on paper.
Workplace Systems
At WHEL Consulting, we help businesses put simple, effective systems in place to support safety, performance, and culture — without the paperwork overload. From WHS training and procedures to policy suites, performance management, and injury management tools, our workplace systems are designed to be practical, usable, and tailored to how your business actually runs.
Leadership & Followership
At WHEL Consulting, we support small and medium businesses to build safe, healthy, and productive workplaces — starting with practical, evidence-based solutions. From ergonomic and manual handling training to culture reviews, psychosocial risk assessments, and communication workshops, we tailor our services to strengthen individual wellbeing, team dynamics, and organisational health — all with real-world outcomes that actually work.
Health & Wellbeing
At WHEL Consulting, we take a practical, people-first approach to leadership. Our services help business owners and teams build the confidence, clarity, and capability to lead well and follow well — because strong workplaces need both. From strategy development and team building to coaching and wellbeing support for owners, our tailored programs create real-world impact where it matters most: in everyday leadership and workplace culture.
