HOW WE HELPED:
Beacon’s People Operations Team was engaged to provide fractional and strategic People Operations support at a time when it wasn’t a strong focus or presence in the organization due to very fast growth.
Liaising directly with the CEO and COO/Founder, our team integrated seamlessly into their organization and team. We provided day-to-day support in areas such as hiring, terminations and payroll and on larger strategic initiatives, such as improving the onboarding program, implementing a formalized performance management program and overhauling the existing employment and contractor agreements, and more, including:
Using a tactful and diplomatic approach to assess and resolve immediate fires including payroll and payruns for both employees and contractors
Adjusted their new hire process and mitigated interpersonal conflicts within a high performing team
Introduced an employee referral program as well as workplace harassment, violence and bullying training
Ongoing projects to improve the onboarding experience
Migrating the HRIS platform and enabled GrantMe to become an employer of choice
““Beacon HR has been a fantastic team to work with. We have been able to scale their support up and down based on what we need and they provide so much flexibility. You can count on Keira and Beacon to complete projects successfully and on time. It is the perfect hybrid of having an HR function without having to have someone full-time. I would highly recommend their services and support to any business!””
