Services FAQ

Common questions before we talk.

What size company is the best fit?

Startups and growing companies that have outgrown ad hoc HR, need senior capacity, or are approaching a meaningful hiring, organizational, or operational change. Fit depends more on complexity and urgency than a specific headcount.

Can you work alongside an internal HR manager or team?

Yes. I can be the senior People partner, coach the internal leader, own a defined initiative, or add capacity while the team runs day-to-day operations.

Will you handle day-to-day HR administration?

I can be hands-on where the engagement requires it, especially while building or repairing a system, with a clear path to a sustainable internal operating model.

Can a project become a fractional engagement?

Yes. Some relationships begin with an audit or focused build and expand into ongoing leadership or implementation support.

Do you provide employment law advice?

No. I provide HR strategy, operations, and implementation support, and work with your employment counsel when a matter requires legal interpretation.
