## About this task

This retail chain selling outdoor gear (1,001–5,000 employees) is looking for a director Fractional HR Business Partner for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Reviews contracts, policies, records and practices and ranks what to fix.

A fresh pair of experienced eyes is needed, and the result is a document or file the team can use straight away. It is a retailer with stores and an online channel, and the team works to a weekly trading rhythm.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United Kingdom works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call.

## What you deliver

- Run an HR health check for a 60-person company and deliver a risk-ranked action plan.

- One round of edits after the company's review is included

- A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

## How the work runs

- Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files

- Days 2 to 8: the work, with questions answered the same day

- Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough

**Duration:** 2 to 3 weeks. Accepted after the walkthrough. Edits requested within three working days are part of the price.

## Tools

Notion Google Docs

## Who fits
