Growth-Minded Interim HR Leader with Global Experience

As a professional services firm aimed to scale from 100 to 1,000 employees, there was a critical need for strategic HR leadership to guide the transition from a PEO to a comprehensive, standalone HR system that could support rapid growth and international operations.

The business, recently merged from three companies into one, faced the daunting task of integrating diverse HR processes and systems while managing international compliance and employee benefits across multiple countries, primarily in the U.S., U.K. and Europe.

BluWave leveraged its network to identify a short list of interim CHRO candidates with deep experience in professional services and high-growth environments. The selected temporary executive was proficient in managing complex HR transitions, advising on system integrations and establishing scalable HR operations.

With the interim CHRO’s guidance, the company successfully consolidated its HR functions, implemented a global benefits plan, and selected appropriate HRIS systems. This strategic overhaul has positioned the firm to effectively manage its workforce as it scales, maintaining compliance and fostering a unified corporate culture.
