Two weeks ago, I left my job, and now it’s time to share my plans for the future. I’ve decided to set sail on my own!
So, what will I be doing?
Essentially, the same things I did before, but now as my own boss. I’ll be stepping into companies as an Interim HR manager on a temporary contract basis. These services are particularly valuable for small businesses that don’t have their own HR specialist or for larger companies going through major changes, dealing with temporary increases in workload, or needing external help for specific projects.
My work will not be limited by geography. Wherever the projects take me, that’s where I’ll go. Fortunately, in today’s world, remote work allows you to collaborate from anywhere.
What exactly do I do?
Recruitment and Talent Acquisition
Searching for and assessing candidates for open positions
Conducting interviews, tests, and reference checks
Onboarding new employees
2. Development of HR Processes and Documentation
Creating policies and procedures for managing people
Designing and implementing employee performance evaluation systems
Drafting employment contracts, job descriptions, and motivation policies
3. Change Management
Supporting companies through reorganizations or mergers
Optimizing organizational structures
Implementing new technologies or HR management systems
4. Handling Urgent or Complex HR Challenges
Conducting competency assessments or HR process audits
Resolving the aftermath of crisis situations (e.g., high turnover rates)
5. Employee Motivation and Training
Organizing and conducting training sessions and seminars
Developing employee motivation programs
Creating talent pipelines to fill key positions
Why is this convenient for companies?
Flexibility: A temporary hire for as long as you need the service.
Cost-efficiency: No expenses for taxes, benefits, or other costs of hiring a full-time employee.
Expertise: Access to an experienced professional with specialized skills
Fresh perspective: An external specialist evaluates HR processes without being influenced by internal corporate culture.
Of course, I’ll still continue with career coaching and consultations. I truly love working with people in this capacity—it not only keeps me connected to the pulse of the market but also provides me with a well-rounded view from both the employer’s and employee’s perspectives.
I also plan to keep up with my blog, but I’ll let it flow naturally—these first couple of weeks have been so busy that I’m hesitant to make promises. That said, I’m definitely not abandoning it!
I’d be delighted to receive recommendations or discuss opportunities to collaborate!
