What founders come to us with

A role has been open for two months and strong candidates decline.

New hires leave within their first months.

The team has grown and roles and responsibilities overlap.

Every people decision goes through the founder.

You need to hire a leader or your first HR person and want to get it right the first time.

There is plenty of HR work, and a full-time HR hire is still ahead.
