Caroline Else

Senior HR Business Partner

Back

Caroline has many years of HR experience under her belt and is also our Mental Health Champion. She is a strong individual with a passion for supporting people and providing help and advice on sensitive matters.

“After almost 20 years working in HR, I still thoroughly enjoy it. Especially the fact that I get to be a part of someone’s career journey, providing guidance along the way.”

Before I joined PLS Solicitors in 2016, I worked at Manpower Strategic Clients where I began my career in human resources. Since then it really has been a whirlwind of a journey and I have never looked back. 

As my career developed, it was clear that my early days of managing people and teams would stand me in good stead for my role today. 

My team say that I am kind and caring and that I always put others before myself. I believe that one of the necessary qualities as an HR lead is to face challenges head on and not shy away from difficult tasks – this is the only way our firm and our people can progress.

Outside of PLS

As well as being a busy mum running round after two teenage boys, I enjoy getting out in the fresh air and walking our dog – an imperial Shih Tzu called Frankie. He is such a character and is a big part of our family.

“The most rewarding part of my role is knowing I’ve supported someone through challenging times, whether it be a work or personal issue.”

First-Time Buyer Jargon Explained 2026

Nodding along when someone says “we’re just waiting on searches” is practically a first-time buyer rite of passage. Whether you’re just starting to browse...
