You get a real HR professional.
Not a portal. Not a chatbot.
Your advisor knows employment law, knows your business, and picks up the phone. They've handled everything from I9 audits to difficult terminations to compensation restructuring, and they're in your corner.

"Shana, Leslie, and their team at ConceptualHR are amazing! The support and execution their team provided transitioning from a large PEO was organized and effective. We saved significant time, money, and sanity working along side this great team! Highly recommend!"
What we do
HR built around your business, not a software platform.
Five ways we partner with growing companies. Pick what you need, skip what you don't. Every engagement starts with a real conversation about what's actually keeping you up at night.
01 / Core
Outsourced HR + Payroll
We become your entire HR & payroll department. Onboarding, benefits, compliance, the daily employee questions. You get senior expertise without the senior salary.
02 / Audit
HR Audit
A clear eyed look at where your HR function stands today. What's working, what's exposing you, and exactly what to fix first. Then we do the work for you, not just hand over a checklist.
03 / On Call
Connect HR
On demand access to a senior HR advisor when you need answers fast, without committing to a full outsourced engagement.
04 / Switch
PEO Alternative
Outgrown your PEO? We unbundle the bloat and rebuild HR around what your business actually needs, usually at a fraction of the cost.
05 / Diligence
Private Equity Support
Risk assessment, HR due diligence, and post close compliance for PE firms and their portfolio companies.

Tell us what's going on. We'll tell you straight whether we can help and how we'd approach it.
How we help
We take care of HR.
You take care of business.
We minimize your exposure to compliance violations, employee issues, and costly legal disputes, while making sure your team actually wants to come to work.
Compliance, without the panic
EEOC, FLSA, ADA, ACA, PWFA, USCIS, DOL. We keep you aligned with labor law so fines, lawsuits, and disruptions don't blindside your business.
Employee questions, handled
From hiring through hard conversations, you have a senior advisor on call, not a ticketing queue.
Risk, quietly managed
Policies, employee relations, and workplace practices that hold up under scrutiny, and protect what you've built.
When you partner with Conceptual HR, you're empowered to:
- HR compliance and risk reduction
- A strong, positive company culture
- Streamlined, efficient HR processes
- Scalable plans for business growth
- Peace of mind that HR is handled
- Reduced exposure to litigation
- Up to date, legally required documentation
- Time and resources back in your day
Senior HR expertise at a fraction of the cost of an in house hire.
A full time HR manager costs $70K to $100K+ in salary alone, before benefits, taxes, and overhead. Conceptual HR gives you that same level of expertise in a fractional capacity, priced for what growing businesses actually need.
What you skip
- No hiring costs
- No benefits overhead
- No onboarding lag
- Predictable monthly rate
- Scales with your business
More than HR support. A partner who's done this before.
20+ years of HR experience on your side, not a junior generalist learning on the job
We work directly with your internal team or ownership, however your business operates
Same day response on email and calls. Urgent issues handled within 3 hours on average
We write, implement, and maintain. Not just advise
Flat monthly rate, predictable and transparent, with no surprise fees
You stay in full control of your people and business decisions
You need HR done right. You just don't need it full time.
You're past the stage of winging it, but not yet at the size where a full time HR hire makes financial sense. You need someone who can handle day to day HR, keep you compliant, and advise you when things get complicated.
Sound familiar?
Your team is growing and HR is falling through the cracks
You're handling employee issues yourself and aren't sure you're doing it correctly
You don't have updated handbooks, job descriptions, or compliant onboarding docs
You're unsure about exempt vs. non exempt classifications, pay practices, or leave requirements
You want strategic HR guidance, not just someone to file paperwork
What clients say
Real conversations. Real outcomes.
"Yes, even law firms need HR advice. And Conceptual HR is top notch! They are professional, approachable, knowledgeable and very responsive. Highly recommend!"
"My company was previously in two different PEO's. We switched to Conceptual HR to get the level of personal attention to our HR, benefits and payroll needs necessary to better care for our employees. In the process, we saved over $10K a month and have a fantastic in person connection with humans who truly care and work daily to improve our company. This is truly a service driven company who cares about the results for their clients."
"Great company with a very responsive team. Always looking out for my employees and our business needs!"
