HR, without the guesswork
Fractional HR support for companies with 10–150 employees — hiring, handbooks, benefits, and the compliance work no one has time for.
What we do
Not a perk, not paperwork, not something you get to after the "real" work. Companies in your size range don't need an HR department — they need the outcomes one produces.
01
Job architecture, interview kits that survive legal review, offer-letter templates, and a 30/60/90 onboarding plan your managers can actually run. We staff the process so hiring stops depending on whoever has a free Tuesday.
03
Open-enrollment management, carrier negotiation, and annual benchmarking against your local market. We explain the trade-offs in plain English so leadership can make the call — and your employees actually understand what they’re choosing.
02
Handbooks written for your state and your industry — not downloaded from a template site. I-9 remediation, FLSA classification audits, wage-and-hour readiness, and a policy cadence that keeps you current without a full-time compliance head.
04
Stay interviews, exit-interview analysis, and manager coaching grounded in your actual turnover data — not engagement-survey theater. We find the two or three fixable reasons people leave, and help you fix them.
Results
We can't name every client — some engagements are confidential by design. But here's what the work actually looked like.
40%
We rebuilt their requisition-to-offer process with structured interview kits and a pre-approved offer-letter matrix. Average time-to-fill dropped from 52 days to 31 days across two hiring seasons — with no drop in 12-month retention.
Zero
Three sites, two states, 340 I-9s — 61 of them incomplete. We completed remediation in seven weeks, rewrote the handbook for both states, and the company passed a state wage-and-hour audit that fall with zero findings and zero penalties.
18%
Their medical renewal came in at +22%. We benchmarked the plan against Portland-market peers, moved them to a level-funded structure with a richer HSA contribution, and cut the renewal to –4% versus the prior year — employees kept their doctors.
The diagnostic
Five questions. Your score, immediately — no email wall, no downloadable PDF. If the score stings, that's information, not a sales pitch.
Five questions · Two minutes · No gate, no PDF
Answer honestly — this is the same checklist we run in the first hour of a paid audit. You’ll get your score immediately, along with what it actually means.
The team
The person who scopes your audit is the person who does the work. Every consultant here has run HR from inside a company your size first.
Founder
Ran a 400-person reorganization from the inside.
Founder & Principal Consultant
SHRM-SCP · 18 years in HR
Fifteen of those years were spent as HR director for a nine-plant manufacturing group in the Pacific Northwest, where she ran everything from union avoidance strategy to a 400-person reorganization. She founded Fieldstone in 2019 because she kept watching good companies learn HR the expensive way.
Four-state I-9 remediation and multistate handbook fluency.
Compliance & Policy Lead
SHRM-CP · 11 years in HR
Previously an HR compliance manager for a healthcare staffing agency operating across four states — which is how he developed a particular fluency in I-9 remediation, multistate handbook drafting, and surviving Department of Labor correspondence without losing sleep.
Plan design for 1,200 employees.
Benefits Practice Lead
CEBS · 14 years in benefits
Spent nine years as a benefits consultant at an employee-owned engineering firm before joining Fieldstone, where she ran plan design for 1,200 employees. She has never met a renewal notice she couldn’t benchmark, negotiate, or explain in under ten minutes.
