Fractional HR
HR expertise for the work you need done.
Fractional gives your business an agreed share of an experienced specialist’s expertise and capacity, with clear responsibility for agreed work and outcomes.
What clients say
Nick consistently went beyond his scope, supporting us not only with recruitment but also with broader HR activities whenever we needed help. He was dependable, responsive, and always willing to step in.
Why fractional?
Access experienced HR leadership and delivery without creating a permanent role. Agree the priorities, specialist involvement and outcomes your business needs.
Defined responsibility
Agree the work, decision-making authority, availability and fees.
Regular follow-up
Review progress together and agree changes as your needs develop.
Support across the employee lifecycle
- Attract and onboard: recruitment, role design and a clear start for new employees.
- Develop and retain: performance, learning, manager capability and employee experience.
- Manage change: organisation design, new systems, restructuring and communication.
- Manage transitions: succession, employee relations and respectful exits.
For example, a fractional people leader could improve onboarding, advise managers and lead the people work during an organisational change.
How it works
Tell us the work you need done.
Meet a specialist with relevant experience.
Agree outcomes, responsibilities, capacity, fees and response times.
Review progress and future needs together.
A defined task may suit a project. An ongoing internal role may suit a permanent hire. We’ll discuss the options with you.
Common questions
Do I need to know whether I need a CHRO or an HR partner?
No. Explain the decision or work you need help with. Hyring can help distinguish senior leadership advice from day-to-day delivery needs.
How should we compare costs?
Compare the proposed deliverables and time with your alternatives. Include setup, ongoing support and handover; compare the full scope, not a percentage of a permanent salary.
What needs to change in your business?
Describe the work. We’ll help define the arrangement.
