Fractional HR Support puts a senior HR leader in the seat immediately. Not a placeholder, and not someone learning the function as they go, but someone who's run HR before and can run yours within days.
Whether you're between HR leaders, scaling past the point where ad hoc support works, or just not ready to commit to a full-time salary yet, our Fractional HR services are built to flex around wherever you actually are.
Fractional HR support for companies that need senior HR leadership now.
Real HR leadership, without adding headcount.
What Fractional HR Looks Like
Someone accountable for the whole HR function, from workforce planning to culture, not just answering questions as they come up.
Leadership, not just triage
Every new hire and every departure follows the same process, whether it's your first hire this quarter or your fifteenth.
Onboarding and exits, handled consistently
How is fractional HR different from hiring a consultant for a project?
Fractional HR is ongoing, embedded leadership across your whole HR function. Consulting is a defined project with a start and end date, like implementing a new HR system. Many clients use both at different points.
How quickly can someone actually start?
Typically within days of signing, not the months a full search usually takes. Most engagements begin with a short onboarding conversation to get oriented on your team and priorities.
Do you help us hire our next permanent HR leader?
Yes, that's often part of the engagement. We can help define the role, run the search, and hand off a documented, running function once someone's in place.
What size company is this built for?
Companies that have outgrown informal HR support, typically 20 or more employees, and need a real function even if a full-time hire isn't the right move yet.
