Independent HR Advisor — AI Practice (Founding Partner Network)
Remote · Independent / 1099
Applications reviewed within 48 hours
Please read before applying: this is a founding partner role, not a salaried W2 position.
Are you thinking about starting your own HR practice, or quietly struggling to grow the one you already have?
Maybe you've led People or Talent for years and you're tired of building someone else's company. Maybe you already went independent and found the hard part isn't the work, it's the blank page: no repeatable method, no way to price it, no steady way to find clients. Some days you wonder whether you should just go back to a full-time role.
I've been close enough to that fork to build the thing I wish existed for it.
WHAT THIS ACTUALLY IS
A complete operating system for an independent HR AI advisory practice. Not a course you watch. A system you run.
You get certified once, then deliver engagements to companies under your own
name and brand, using:
- The Measure: an AI-readiness diagnostic your clients complete, with a branded readout you deliver
- A strategic plan generator that turns the diagnostic into a client-ready plan
- Workflow mapping and an enablement curriculum for the delivery work
- The client-getting playbook: outreach templates, the messages that book calls, and how to talk about this so buyers say yes
- Proposal and pricing templates, so you quote with confidence instead of guessing
- A full asset library and concierge setup, so you start with a practice, not a to-do list
Full engagements for clients typically are invoiced in this space bill between $75,000 and $300,000.
You own every client relationship and set your own fees.
MY GUARANTEE
Landing your first client is built into the program as the work, not left for after. If you complete it and do the outreach, and you haven't landed your first paid engagement within 90 days, I keep working with you until you do. I designed the guarantee to be rarely needed.
WHO I'M SELECTING
- You've led HR, People, or Talent at a company (Director level or above)
- You run an independent practice now, or plan to within 6 months
- You have a network or early clients you could approach in the next 90 days
- You want a proven system, not a blank page
This is a founding group, limited to a small number of partners. Founding
partners help shape the network and keep founding terms as it grows.
HOW TO APPLY OR LEARN MORE
Answer 5 short questions in the application. If it's a fit, you'll get an intro call within 48 hours, where we cover how it works and what it costs. If it's not a fit, I'll tell you plainly.
This is an independent contractor and certified-partner opportunity, not
employment. It requires certification and real work. I don't guarantee
specific income outcomes.
