BUSINESS NAME

‘The HR Haven’

OCCUPATION

‘HR & Leadership Development Consultant’

Meet Victoria — founder of The HR Haven and a trusted expert in hiring, team building, and people leadership.

With over 15 years of HR experience, Victoria supports purpose-driven business owners in building aligned, confident, and high-performing teams — without the overwhelm.

Originally from Ireland, Victoria arrived in Australia as a backpacker and, much to her mum’s surprise, fell in love with an Aussie. Sixteen years later, she proudly calls Albury home, balancing business life with two energetic kids and a mission to make hiring and leadership genuinely enjoyable.

Her signature Magnetic Hiring Method takes the guesswork out of recruitment, helping small business owners build teams that truly fit. She also facilitates DISC personality profiling workshops that transform the way teams communicate, collaborate, and lead.

Victoria has worked across a wide range of industries, guiding countless leaders through their first (or fiftieth!) hire and supporting teams through rapid growth, complex dynamics, and everything in between. Her approach is practical, honest, and always people-first — because she believes good leadership should feel aligned, not exhausting.

Whether supporting a powerhouse entrepreneur ready to scale or a solo operator seeking clarity, Victoria helps simplify systems, attract the right people, and lead with heart and confidence. If that sounds like your kind of HR — The HR Haven is ready to help.
