We become your outsourced HR function: contracts, compliance, performance, hiring and the hard people conversations — run by a senior HR partner for a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire.
Month-to-month · No lock-in contracts · Trusted by Australian SMEs from 5 to 200 staff.
A solo consultant is one person and one point of failure. A big provider is a call queue. We're built differently: you get a dedicated HR partner who knows your business, backed by Martin's 15+ years of senior oversight — so the work is both hands-on and properly judged.
The three ways a growing business usually solves HR — and where each one leaves you exposed.
Martin Péril has spent 15+ years leading HR, industrial relations and change for Australian businesses — from fast-growing SMEs to complex, unionised workforces. He personally scopes every engagement and stays across the calls that carry real risk: the disputes, restructures and terminations where getting it wrong is expensive.
That's the difference from a call centre — you're not advised by whoever happens to pick up. You get a named senior partner who knows your business by name.
"They took every piece of HR off my desk and gave me back ten hours a week. The closest thing to a HR director without hiring one."
"We had a serious ER matter blow up on a Friday. Martin's team had it under control by Monday. Worth it for that alone."
"Our contracts and awards were a mess. Now I actually sleep at night knowing we're compliant and covered."
Month-to-month. No lock-in contracts. Cancel or change tier with 30 days' notice.
Essentials and HR Manager are delivered by your dedicated Launch Us HR partner, supervised by Martin. HR Partner is led personally by Martin — pricing scales with the level of senior involvement.
No. Every plan is month-to-month. If it's not working, you give 30 days' notice — no multi-year tie-ins, no exit penalties. We earn the relationship every month.
You get a dedicated HR partner who runs your day-to-day, backed by Martin's senior oversight on the hard calls and strategy. On the Partner tier, Martin is personally on your account. Either way, there's never a single point of failure.
Often, yes. We frequently sit alongside an office manager or internal coordinator — handling the senior, high-risk and strategic work while they keep the admin moving. We'll scope exactly where we add the most value in the Risk Review.
Within days for ongoing support, and immediately for genuine emergencies — a live ER matter, an investigation or a termination you need handled right. Urgent people matters average a 48-hour turnaround.
We work across trades and services, logistics, healthcare and allied health, hospitality and professional services — the SME sectors where award complexity and ER risk run highest. Award interpretation is core to what we do.
