alcea consulting

When everyday processes slow your business down, clarity matters.

Alcea helps organisations reduce operational pressure in office and back-office functions such as HR, marketing, finance and administration. It’s in these areas that growing complexity quietly increases cost, risk and workload.

We work with Boards, leaders and teams to fix how work gets done, creating clear, repeatable and time-saving processes that reduce workload and improve productivity across the business.

Technology, including AI, supports this work, but process and people always come first.

02 - WHO WE HELp

We work with leaders and teams under growing operational pressure

We work with Boards, leadership teams and functional leaders who are feeling operational pressure build as their organisation or department grows.

They want to improve how work gets done across office and back-office functions, reduce time-consuming tasks and introduce technology in a way that is practical, safe and sustainable.

Organisations typically engage us through a combination of the following stages, depending on where operational pressure sits.

Understanding where pressure is building

We work with Boards and leadership teams to identify where operational pressure is building across office and back-office functions such as HR, finance, marketing and core administration. This creates clarity on what is slowing the business down and where time-consuming work is having the greatest impact.

Prioritising what to fix first

Not everything needs to change at once. We help leadership teams prioritise the processes that matter most, focusing on improvements that will reduce pressure, save time and deliver measurable productivity gains. This ensures effort is directed where it will make the biggest difference.

Improving how work gets done

Once priorities are clear, we support organisations to redesign and improve everyday processes across office and back-office functions. Technology, including AI, is introduced where it genuinely helps reduce repetitive work and improve efficiency, always in a practical and considered way.

Making improvements stick

Lasting improvement depends on people. We support leaders and teams through practical training and coaching so new ways of working are understood, adopted and sustained. This reduces reliance on individuals, improves consistency and helps productivity gains hold as the organisation grows.
