—— The Real Math of Going Fractional
Hiring a full-time Head of People costs more than the salary. A senior HR lead in Canada runs $120,000 to $150,000 in base pay, but the real number is higher. Add benefits, employer payroll costs, paid leave, and equipment, and the loaded cost lands between $154,000 and $202,000 a year. Before they start, you'll pay a recruiter $18,000 to $30,000 to find them. Then it takes three to six months before they're fully up to speed, on salary the whole time. And if it doesn't work out, you're covering severance and starting the search over.
Our fractional partnerships deliver that exact same senior executive leadership at a fraction of the annual cost:
Our Light Partnership provides ongoing strategic advisory and compliance peace of mind for less than a quarter of a full-time hire's fully loaded cost.
Our Embedded Partnership gives you a dedicated, hands-on Head of People with a seat at your leadership table for under half of what you would pay to hire full-time.
There's a bigger point than the savings. At what most growing companies can afford for a full-time HR hire, you get a coordinator, not a leader. Fractional is how a 20-person team gets Head-of-People judgment without the Head-of-People price.
No recruiting fee, no ramp-up, no severance exposure, and month-to-month after the first three months. That's up to 70% less than a full-time hire, productive from week one.
Same seniority. A fraction of the hours.
