The Davidson Group's HR delivery model combines a Fractional HR Consultant ($170/hour) with an HR Manager ($70/hour) to provide a comprehensive HR solution at a fraction of the cost of building a full internal HR department. This team-based approach ensures that high-level strategic work is performed by a senior HR expert while day-to-day administrative and operational HR responsibilities are managed efficiently and cost-effectively. The Fractional HR Consultant serves as your strategic HR leader and business partner. They assess your organization's needs, identify challenges and opportunities, and develop an action plan to support your business goals. The consultant designs and implements HR programs, policies, processes, compliance initiatives, compensation structures, performance management systems, leadership development programs, succession planning strategies, and workforce plans. They also lead higher-level projects such as organizational restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, culture transformation initiatives, HR audits, employee relations investigations, and HR technology implementations. Their focus is on building the foundation, strategy, and long-term roadmap that drive organizational success. The HR Manager ($70/hour) works alongside the consultant to execute the strategy and manage the daily HR functions that keep your business running smoothly. Responsibilities may include onboarding and offboarding employees, benefits administration, recruiting coordination, leave administration, maintaining employee records, responding to employee inquiries, processing personnel changes, managing compliance documentation, supporting performance review cycles, and handling routine employee relations matters. By managing these operational activities, the HR Manager allows leadership to stay focused on running the business while ensuring employees receive timely support. Together, the Fractional HR Consultant and HR Manager function as a seamless HR department. The consultant develops the strategy, programs, and action plans, while the HR Manager carries out the day-to-day execution and administrative responsibilities. This approach gives organizations access to executive-level HR expertise when needed while controlling costs by assigning routine tasks to a highly capable HR professional. The result is a scalable, flexible HR solution that supports everything from everyday employee needs to complex organizational initiatives, ensuring your business has the right level of HR support at the right cost.
