HR & Safety Solutions
If you care, we care
MCL (Mister Consultants Limited) is born from a desire of the Director, Damon Jacobsen, to help business owners with the People and Compliance aspects of their business. Let’s face it, People Management issues and Compliance Requirements can be challenging and frustrating, and often distract you from the things you’d rather focus on. Sadly, difficult employees can be a thorn in your side. Compliance can be viewed as a necessary evil or just “a pain in the butt”. If both are managed well, solutions can be a means of improving your business’ performance and outcomes.
The Company name derives from Damon being referred to, in both a professional or personal capacity, as Mr HR or Mr Safety. Specializing in Human Resources and Health & Safety management, MCL will work with you in your compliance requirements to improve your business’ performance.
If you care about your business, we’d love to work with you to look after it.

Damon’s working career has primarily been in the manufacturing sector, spanning over 20 years. Ten years was spent working in processing, warehouse or administration duties, often operating equipment or machines, some of which were high risk. This has given him an understanding of how work is done and perceived by the general workforce. A further ten plus years has been spent at the senior management level, where he has experience in managing HR and H&S, at a senior level, within 2 large manufacturing organizations.
Working in the education sector for over 7 years, Damon gained experience in managing people, teaching adult students, and meeting government compliance requirements. He understands the highs and lows of managing people to meet business objectives.
