About
For many growing businesses, the cost and commitment of a full-time Head of Talent is not the right answer. But operating without senior recruitment leadership creates real problems. Hiring becomes reactive, inconsistent, and expensive. Good people leave before you have replaced the last ones. And leadership teams spend time firefighting problems that should not exist.
The Fractional Talent Leader Retainer gives you senior, embedded recruitment leadership on a flexible basis. I become part of your team for a defined number of days per month, providing the strategic direction, practical oversight, and hands-on expertise your hiring function needs to operate properly.
This is not remote advisory support or the occasional call. I am embedded in your business, attending the meetings that matter, working with your hiring managers, and taking genuine ownership of your talent function.
WHAT THIS TYPICALLY INCLUDES
• Hiring strategy and workforce planning
• Recruitment process ownership and improvement
• Hiring manager coaching and support
• Agency and supplier management
• Data, reporting, and performance oversight
• Direct involvement in senior or complex hires
• Ongoing stakeholder engagement with leadership
The engagement is scoped around what your business needs and reviewed regularly as those needs evolve. Some clients use this to bridge a gap while they build an internal team. Others find it is the right long-term model and never look back.
