Hire the Best Compensation Consultants
in India

When HR is done right, people stay, businesses scale, and leaders stop firefighting. I'm an HR consultant and Fractional CHRO with nearly 20 years of experience helping fast-scaling startups, family businesses, and mid-size companies build the people infrastructure that actually holds up under pressure, not just on paper. Whether you need a compensation structure that's defensible and motivating, a policy framework your team will follow, or an org design that doesn't fall apart at 100 people, I bring both the strategic lens and the operational detail to get it done. In addition, I also help in running 1-person HR functions for small businesses. What I work on: 🔹 Compensation Strategy — Pay bands, salary benchmarking, variable pay design, pay equity audits 🔹 HR Policy & Operations — Employee handbooks, SOPs, compliance frameworks, HR process design 🔹 HR & Business Writing — Policy & procedure books, employee handbooks, SOPs, job descriptions, compliance documentation, proposals and HR blogs and articles 🔹 Career Architecture — Leveling guides, competency frameworks, promotion pathways 🔹 Organizational Design — Restructuring, role clarity, succession planning, spans & layers analysis 🔹 Fractional CHRO — Ongoing HR leadership, audits, systems setup, leadership coaching Some Industries I've worked across: SaaS, manufacturing, retail, consulting, nonprofits, and professional services. I pride myself on delivering clarity and action, instead of just on-paper strategy. With nearly 20 years in HR and a sharp writing background, I produce frameworks, policies, and documents that people actually read, follow, and act on. If your people strategy feels patched together, or you're scaling and the cracks are starting to show, let's talk.
