Fractional/interim People leader for VC-backed companies. I bring clarity, coach managers and leave teams ready to run.
Fractional/interim People leader for VC-backed companies. I bring clarity, coach managers and leave teams ready to run.
But someone still needs to own the work.
These issues are usually connected. The first step is to understand what is happening and decide what needs attention now.

I step into a senior People gap, support the team and keep the important work moving.
WHAT YOU GET
Clear priorities, hands-on leadership, manager support and a credible handover to the permanent hire.
TIMELINE
Agreed around the leadership gap and permanent-hire plan.
BEST FOR
A People leader has left, or you are not ready for the permanent hire.

I work alongside founders and managers to strengthen the People foundations that growth has exposed.
WHAT YOU GET
Clearer ownership, stronger management and practical improvements to hiring, progression, performance and ways of working.
TIMELINE
Rolling, with one month’s notice.
BEST FOR
The company has grown, but the way the People work is handled has not kept up.

I take ownership of one defined priority and move it from intention to implementation.
WHAT YOU GET
A finished, working system with stakeholder alignment, manager training and a clear handover built in.
TIMELINE
Typically 2–4 months.
BEST FOR
You know what needs fixing but lack the time or experience to build and run it internally.







It depends on what you need. A diagnostic usually takes 2–3 weeks, while a focused project is usually 2–4 months. Fractional or interim support often runs for 3–12 months, depending on the situation and handover plan. We will work out what makes sense in the first call.
For most engagements, I work as part of your team - representing the People function in leadership meetings, supporting managers and leading the day-to-day agenda. In some situations, a lighter advisory role is enough. We decide based on what the company needs, not what is easiest for me.
Maybe not yet. Many companies at your stage need experienced leadership and stronger foundations before a full-time hire makes sense. I can build what is needed now and hand it over properly when the time comes.
We check in regularly. If the engagement is not delivering, we adjust it or I step back. I would rather end early than stay for the sake of it. You will always know where you stand.
I use AI where it improves the workflow or reduces administration. I may also build lightweight tools your team can keep using. But AI does not replace judgement, accountability or manager capability; those remain human responsibilities.
