HR services for marketing and advertising agencies
Your agency is its people. We bring senior, agency-experienced HR leadership to the strategy, compliance, and culture work that keeps them — most fractional finance firms don’t offer this at all.
The people side, led by agency veterans
In an agency, talent is the product. Yet people strategy is usually the first thing that outgrows the founder and the last thing that gets real leadership. We provide fractional HR — from a Chief People Officer down to hands-on HR business partnering — built for the pace, structure, and culture of creative and marketing businesses.
That means compensation and leveling that make sense, compliant policies and handbooks, manager coaching, performance frameworks, and employee relations handled with judgment. It is people strategy that supports the work, not bureaucracy that smothers it.
The whitespace most CFO firms leave open
Almost no fractional CFO firm offers real HR. We do, because agency finance and agency people are inseparable — headcount is your biggest cost and your only asset. Pairing HR with finance under one roof means compensation strategy, hiring plans, and profitability actually talk to each other.
What’s included

Common questions
When should a marketing agency hire HR?
Typically around 25–50 employees, or sooner if you are growing fast, operating across states, or feeling manager and culture strain. Fractional HR lets you get senior leadership at that stage without committing to a full-time hire before the role is full.
