Fractional HR & Operations for Growing Businesses
Senior HR and Operations Leadership, Without the Full-Time Hire
Pati Jones brings 23+ years of experience running the people and operations side of growing companies, including venture-backed startups at Idealab. As your fractional HR and operations lead, she builds the systems that get owners out of the weeds: hiring and onboarding, handbooks and compliance, workflows, vendors, and the day-to-day structure that keeps a business running. When you need it, the same team handles corporate events and bookkeeping, so one trusted partner covers the work that usually falls through the cracks. Based in the Hudson Valley and serving clients through New York City.
