Month-to-month retainer with flexibility to scale. You get consistent access to strategic People leadership as long as you need it.
Based on company size, headcount, and scope of support
Your team is too big to handle HR on the fly, but you're not ready to hire a full-time CPO. You need structure, systems, and strategic support now.
You're doubling the team in 12-18 months and need someone to design the org, build hiring processes, and make sure you don't break culture as you grow.
You don't want another consultant who delivers a deck and disappears. You need a partner who actually implements, trains your team, and stays until it works.
You're restructuring, managing a reduction-in-force, or going through major operational shifts. You need experienced support to handle it with care and clarity.
You recognize that People and Ops aren't separate functions. You need someone who can design org structure, set goals, and build systems that support execution.
You care more about execution and results than fancy titles or agency pedigree. You want a strategic partner embedded with your team, not a hands-off advisor.
You get the same strategic expertise and execution without the $200K–350K annual cost (salary, benefits, equity). Plus, you gain immediate access to systems, templates, and operational experience that would take a new hire months to build. And you can scale support up or down based on what you actually need.
Retainers are month-to-month with a 30-day notice period. We recommend starting with a 3-month minimum to build momentum. Typical engagement is 10-20 hours per week, depending on scope and priorities.
Absolutely. Many clients start with a strategic sprint (org design, workforce planning, ATS implementation) and convert to ongoing retainer once they see the value of embedded partnership.
We typically work alongside your existing team (if you have one) as the strategic leader. If you don't have HR yet, we act as your full People function. We're here to enable your team, not replace them.
Recruiting strategy and hiring support can be included in your retainer or added as a separate project. We design your hiring process, train your team, and can run searches as needed.
We treat all employee and company information with complete confidentiality. We sign NDAs, follow your security protocols, and handle sensitive matters (terminations, investigations, etc.) with the same care as an internal leader.
