Something is always on fire, and people strategy is the thing that never makes it to Monday. Ellice brings twenty-eight years of director-level HR judgment to your organization, at the fraction you actually need.

Not a policy binder. The judgment and the systems that make a small organization a place people want to stay.
A people plan that ladders up to the business, so HR stops being a cost centre and starts being a lever.
Pay and rewards that are fair, competitive, and built to survive board scrutiny.
Building the culture on purpose, and measuring honestly whether it is working.
Hiring for how people actually think and solve, not just their pedigree.
Feedback that actually helps, and a bench so leadership is never a single point of failure.
The systems and analytics that make a lean HR function run like a big one, with a human on anything that touches people.
Something concrete in your hands at the end of each one.
Your people, and the pressures on them, in your words.
What is actually driving the turnover, the tension, or the risk.
A people plan with owners, dates, and priorities.
In the room for the hard conversations, not just the plan.
How to tell when you need director-level HR, what it should cost, and what to hand over first. Plain, practical, no jargon.
The first conversation is free. Bring the thing you have been putting off. That is usually the place to start.
