Toni Batchelor

St Peter’s Human Resources Manager, Toni Batchelor, graduated Cum Laude from her Master’s degree in Industrial Psychology, at the University of Witwatersrand. She is also registered with the Health Professionals Council as an Industrial Psychologist (PS 0147931).  At St Peter's, the role of HR Manager is to provide effective HR support to the school with an emphasis on HR initiatives that address the value of relationships and optimise performance in the context of the College’s business functions.

Toni’s ability to realise the benefits of healthy working relationships, combined with in-depth knowledge and skills of Human Resource Management; Labour Relations; Talent Management and Psychometrics is at the heart of her career success and contribution to the College.

Practical exposure to a variety of functional sections during an early internship role at Shine, (a niche consultancy focused on improving performance and reducing stress in the workplace, through enabling healthy relationships) laid a strong foundation of workable knowledge and competency across her various areas of practice.

Now, as part of the Senior Executive team at St Peter’s, Toni is involved in developing and fulfilling the strategic goals of the College by effecting Human Relations aspects that harness optimal organisational potential.

Toni believes that investing in ALL personnel makes the organisation functionally more effective, because through working together, everyone achieves more.  The phrase “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts” first coined by the philosopher Aristotle, sums up her approach to the HR function at St Peter’s!
