Frequently Asked Question

A fractional HR Partner provides experienced HR expertise on a flexible, part-time basis without the cost of hiring a full-time HR professional. This gives your business access to the right level of HR support as your needs evolve.

Our Essential, Professional, and  Strategic HR Partner,  services are designed to meet different levels of HR needs. We can help you determine the right level based on your business size, workforce, current HR requirements, and future goals.

Not necessarily. For many small and growing businesses, fractional HR support can provide access to experienced HR expertise without the commitment and cost of a full-time HR position.

We begin with a conversation to understand your business, people priorities, and current HR needs. From there, we can recommend the most appropriate HR Partner service and develop a practical approach that fits your business.

An HR Partner retainer provides your business with consistent access to experienced HR expertise, proactive guidance, and ongoing support. Rather than reacting to HR issues as they arise, a retainer gives you a trusted HR partner who understands your business and can help address today’s needs while preparing for tomorrow’s challenges.

Our HR Partner services are structured on a monthly retainer basis, providing you with a dedicated level of HR support each month for the duration of your service agreement. Your monthly retainer reserves your agreed level of HR support and access to HR expertise when you need it, with payment terms outlined in your service contract. For longer-term or project-based HR engagements, payment arrangements are established in the service contract based on the scope, duration, and requirements of the engagement. This provides clear expectations around services, fees, and deliverables from the outset.

Our HR Partner services begin with an initial 3-month agreement, giving us the opportunity to understand your business, address immediate HR priorities, and establish a strong HR foundation. Once the initial term has demonstrated value, you can continue with a 6- or 12-month renewal, depending on your business needs and desired level of support. Your service level can also be adjusted as your business grows or your HR requirements evolve, giving you the flexibility to increase, reduce, or modify your support over time.

Yes. Our HR consulting services are supported by appropriate professional insurance coverage, giving you added confidence that your business is working with a professional HR partner. We believe in providing not only trusted HR expertise, but also the reassurance and professionalism businesses need when managing their people and workplace.
