How we've helped
Case Studies
Four examples of how we help founders and HR teams — hiring, HR operations, pay and team structure. Each one in full, with what changed.
01 · Post-IPO Transformation
The IPO was a triumph. Then came the realization.
A newly-public company discovered its startup-era handbooks, fragmented contracts, and stale commission schemes couldn't sustain a global operation. We rebuilt their employee infrastructure, turned compensation into a strategic tool, and redesigned their sales incentive scheme.
What changedPolicies, contracts and pay structures fit for a listed company, and a sales incentive worth chasing again.

When the mission is invaluable, but the budget is non-existent.
An NGO leader serving underprivileged children was trapped between unaffordable recruiters and 300 unqualified resumes. We took over the heavy lifting: crafting JDs, managing job postings, and screening applicants. She received only the top three vetted candidates at a fraction of the cost.
What changedA shortlist of three vetted candidates, ready to interview, at a fraction of agency cost.

When the floor is calling, but the paperwork is screaming.
A high-energy retail manager for a growing fashion brand was drowning in admin. Every new hire meant mountains of payroll, compliance, and HR work. We sourced talent matching his brand's pulse, handled all employment legalities, onboarding, payroll, and benefits.
What changedPayroll and employment administration handled externally, and his time back on the floor.

When fast growth outpaces your organizational map.
A professional services founder had every person reporting directly to her — no hierarchy, no structure. We stepped in as her fractional HR leader, redrew the org chart, drafted performance frameworks, turned doers into leaders, and mapped her team's evolution for the next three years.
What changedClear reporting lines, managers equipped to lead, and a three-year plan for the team.
