The Work

Fractional Head of People

For companies that need ongoing HR leadership but aren't ready — or don't need — a full-time Head of People. I work as part of your leadership team: attending meetings, advising on people decisions, and building the infrastructure your organization needs as it grows.

Examples of the Work:

  • HR strategy and direction — setting priorities and advising leadership on people decisions

  • Employee relations — advising on performance issues, difficult conversations, and terminations

  • Benefits selection and management — evaluating options and managing annual renewal

  • Running ongoing HR programs — performance reviews, compensation cycles, engagement check-ins

  • Compliance oversight — keeping HR practices current with employment law

  • Manager coaching and support — helping your managers navigate people situations

  • Coverage across all areas of HR so nothing important falls through the cracks

  • Org design input as the company evolves

    $150/hr · Most ongoing engagements are scoped by month or quarter

People Systems & Structure

This is the foundational work — creating the systems and frameworks that let your organization scale without chaos.

Examples of the Work:

  • HR Assessment and Action Plan — comprehensive look at where your HR function stands today — what's working, what's missing, and what needs to be built

  • Full compensation structure — philosophy, pay ranges, and total rewards framework

  • Clear job levels, titles, and career paths so people know where they fit and how they can grow

  • HR strategy and operational framework — tools and structures your leadership and HR team can use for planning and decision-making

  • HR data and people analytics — cleaning up and structuring your existing data, establishing the metrics that matter, building reporting frameworks, and giving leadership clear visibility into workforce trends.

  • Onboarding program and process design

  • Performance review process and structure

  • Goal-setting framework

  • Engagement survey action planning — designing how to act on employee feedback and drive meaningful change from survey results

  • HR systems evaluation and implementation support

  • HR project work as needs arise — audits, policy updates, program design, and more

    $150/hr · Most engagements are project-based with a defined scope and estimated hours agreed upfront

Organizational Clarity

When growth, a leadership change, or a strategic shift means your structure no longer matches where you're going. This engagement brings clarity to how your organization is built — how teams are designed, how roles relate to each other, and how it all connects to your financial plan.

Examples of the Work:

  • Organizational structure assessment and recommendations

  • Department design and naming

  • Roles and responsibilities framework

  • Org planning in direct partnership with your finance lead

  • Succession planning framework

  • Integration with your existing systems and reporting

  • Job levels and titles where relevant to the restructure

    $150/hr · Typically scoped as a defined project

First Hire Package

Hiring your first employee is more involved than most founders expect. There are compensation decisions to make, policies to put in place, systems to configure, and legal requirements to get right — often all at once. This package handles all of it with you, from the first offer letter to the day they walk in the door.

What's Included:

  • Market compensation research and salary range recommendation

  • Job description development

  • Offer letter drafting

  • Essential HR policies — time off, code of conduct, at-will employment, and more

  • Full employee setup in your HR system

  • Background check coordination

  • Workers' compensation setup assistance

  • Employment law guidance for your state

  • Manager checklist so nothing falls through the cracks

  • Walkthrough and handoff call

    $1,500 fixed price · Up to 10 hours · Optional add-on: Gusto account setup +$400

HR Audit and Roadmap

A comprehensive diagnostic of your entire people function. I meet with your leadership team, HR staff, and a cross-section of employees to understand where things stand today — then assess every area of HR: what's working, what isn't, and where the critical gaps are. You walk away with a prioritized roadmap so you know exactly what to address and in what order.

What's Included:

  • Leadership interviews (C-suite + one level down)

  • HR team interviews

  • Employee listening sessions

  • Full HR function assessment — recruiting, onboarding, performance, compensation, benefits, compliance, systems, and culture

  • Documentation and systems — review of existing policies, documentation, and HR systems to identify gaps

  • Executive presentation with findings

  • Prioritized action roadmap

    $6,000–$9,000 · Scope varies by organization size

    Scope is defined upfront — number of interviews and HR domains covered are agreed before work begins. Complexity beyond defined scope is quoted separately.

People Foundations

A well-built HR foundation changes how your organization operates. People know what to expect, managers have what they need to lead well, and every new hire comes in through a process that works. This package builds that first foundation from the ground up.

What's Included:

  • Core HR policies — the essentials every company needs to operate

  • Recruiting framework — a consistent hiring process, interview guides, and recruiting software (ATS) recommendation

  • Onboarding structure — cross-functional process, checklists, and manager guide

  • Role and title framework — job levels, title structure, and job description template

  • Performance review process and manager toolkit — a usable review cycle and practical guidance for managers

  • HR systems evaluation — recommendations for what you need and why

    $7,500–$10,500 · Scope defined upfront based on company size and existing infrastructure
