“We engaged PiE for the first time this year and have been highly impressed by the quality of the service they offer. We needed to commission an independent third-party review into the remuneration of the Trusts Senior Team and were looking to employ a company whose processes were underpinned by robust benchmarking relevant to education. PiE work in line with ESFA and NGA guidelines, their approach to working with us has been collaborative and enlightening, well organised and exceptionally transparent. Working with PiE has on one level given us confidence to make informed decisions on where to pitch salaries and how to manage the consistent application of a three-year plan. On another level we believe that using PiE’s recommendations, the Trust will also remain competitive within the education sector. ”

“Dear Sharon, I thought you would want to know that the presentation of your report to the Trust Board ran really well and was very positively received. The remuneration benchmarking and recommendations really helped to give the Trustees confidence in their decision making. Your guidance around the approach for the CEO performance review was extremely helpful and the outcome was a very positive experience with the session being a great opportunity for constructive feedback and dialogue between the CEO and the rest of the Trust Board. So, thank you again for your help, it has really helped us with a step forward on a high- performance journey for our MAT. ”
