thePeoplePartners | Fractional HR Services by theHappyLab
thePeoplePartners is a Fractional HR Services model designed specifically for SMEs, start-ups, and scale-ups that need strategic HR expertise — without the cost or rigidity of a full-time HR function.
We act as your on-demand HR Business Partner, combining strategic thinking with hands-on support to help your people, leaders, and organization grow sustainably.
Because success isn't about size — it's about vision, leadership, talent, culture, and having the right HR partner by your side.
A Strategic HR Business Partner for you
A Mentor
for your Leaders
A Champion
for your employees
Our Approach
Unlike traditional HR consulting, Fractional HR means we embed ourselves in your reality. We don't just advise — we co-create, implement, and stay close to your leaders and teams as your organization evolves.
We start from your real context: where your organization is today, the people challenges you face, and the HR foundations that need to be built or strengthened.
Together, we co-create a clear HR roadmap and support its implementation — while working hands-on with leaders and advising employees on everyday people matters.
Our partnership allows us to put in place the policies and processes that actually work in your day-to-day business, while our collaboration with internal teams ensures that we are transferring people management and HR knowledge and building your organization's capability.
