About Pernie
A simple idea with an important purpose.
Pernie began with a practical question:
Could everyday HR administration be made simpler?
What started as an internal software development project has grown into an opportunity to create something useful for other businesses and the HR professionals who support them.
The idea is straightforward.
Employers should be able to manage essential people information without unnecessary complexity.
HR consultants should have access to tools that make supporting their clients more efficient.
And technology should make the work of looking after people easier, rather than creating additional work.
That’s the thinking behind Pernie.
Our purpose
To give people more time for people.
How we approach development
We’re building Pernie around four principles: Plain, Careful, Useful and Honest. That means listening to the people who use the software, developing features that solve genuine problems, protecting confidential information and being transparent about what the platform can deliver.
The business behind Pernie
