Remote People-Ops for Distributed Teams
The HR operations layer your remote team should have shipped two years ago.
Who this is for
- Remote teams from 10–60 with no dedicated people-ops
- Founders drowning in hiring, onboarding, and admin
- Agencies that grew fast and now feel it in retention
Problems solved
- - Hiring loops that take 6–10 weeks and still miss
- - Onboarding that is a Slack DM and a Google Doc
- - No documented review or feedback cadence
- - People-ops admin sitting on the founder's plate

KPIs I track
Frequently asked
Do you handle regulated HR filings?
No. I run people-operations — coordination, documentation, and rhythm. Regulated employment matters go to your local counsel or PEO.
What team size is this for?
10–60 people is the sweet spot. Below 10, a good VA is enough. Above 60, you probably need a full-time head of people.
Do you help with hiring across countries?
Yes — I have coordinated hiring pipelines for U.S., U.K., UAE, and remote-EU teams.
