You can't grow past 5-10 people without real HR systems. I build the policies, processes, and platforms that turn chaotic people management into predictable, compliant operations—so you can focus on building your team instead of firefighting HR issues.
What's included:
- Employment policies and employee handbook creation
- Offer letters, employment agreements, and onboarding documentation
- Payroll system implementation (Rippling, Gusto, ADP)
- Benefits administration setup and vendor coordination
- Performance management frameworks and review processes
- Recruiting infrastructure, job descriptions, and interview systems
- Onboarding workflows that reduce ramp time and increase retention
- Compliance verification across distributed teams and multi-state operations
Who needs this:
- Startups hiring their first 5-10 employees and needing HR infrastructure
- Companies transitioning from 1099 contractors to W-2 employees
- Founders drowning in people operations without a dedicated HR leader
- Businesses scaling across multiple states requiring compliance expertise
Typical outcomes:
- 80% reduction in new hire ramp time through systematized onboarding
- Compliant HR infrastructure preventing employment law violations
- 60% decrease in founder time spent on people operations
- Scalable recruiting and onboarding systems supporting rapid growth
Engagement: 60-90 day buildout, ongoing HR operations support available
