When growth makes people decisions heavier, slower, and more consequential.
Fractional HR
What fractional HR looks like in practice
As organizations grow, people decisions stop being operational and start becoming strategic. Hiring choices carry more risk. Performance issues have broader impact. Culture decisions compound quickly.
Tandem provides fractional HR leadership for companies that need senior-level judgment and ownership without building a full internal HR function. We operate as part of the leadership team, not as an outsourced support layer.
Fractional HR at Tandem means taking responsibility for the people strategy while building systems that scale with the business.
Our work commonly includes:
People strategy aligned to business goals
Leadership structure, role clarity, and accountability
Hiring strategy and talent decisions
Performance management and feedback systems
Employee relations and complex people issues
Compliance and risk mitigation as the business grows
Why Choose Fractional HR?
1.
Senior-level judgment without the overhead

Scalable support as the business evolves
As growth accelerates or slows, the level of HR leadership adjusts accordingly.
3.
Clear ownership of people decisions
A single point of accountability for people strategy instead of fragmented responsibility.
