A strong foundation will allow you to grow better. We help you to create a rock-solid foundation, which is efficient and results in a great employee experience. We create a People and Culture plan, based on your company’s current phase and priorities. We then execute, enabling you to successfully scale or optimise your operations.
You’re hiring more people, complexity is rising, and there’s no dedicated HR team member yet. We design and implement the People basics you need to keep growing smoothly.
Improve your basics
You’ve got some things in place, but know you can do better when it comes to people and culture.
We make sure you get the basics right, from a legal, compliance and admin perspective.
This is the start of smooth sailing or scaling - when it comes to your people and HR matters.
Make it smooth and efficient
You’re on a roll, but want to do even better. We can make everything a bit more effective and attractive.
Think efficient HR processes, smart tooling and clear and transparent policies. We help you create the best ways of working - so you can focus on other things.
For a high HR workload
Extra HR support when things get super-busy. Or when you want to scale faster than your HR team can handle.
We bring all the knowledge and tools to take your people foundation to the next level.
For when you need more than the basics you already have in place.

Fleur and Paul played a key role in building the foundation of our People Operations during significant growth and change. They led the development of our growth framework, compensation philosophy, employee handbook, and key HR processes - all tailored to our organisation's needs. They were proactive, fast, and brought a deep understanding of people and operations. It was a great partnership, we're well set up for the future.

Fleur guided us in building a strong People Operations foundation. She took the time to deeply understand our company, people and leadership. With her strategic insights and hands-on approach, she helped us identify key priorities, streamline processes and implement impactful initiatives aligned with our vision. Thanks to this collaboration with Fleur & the 7people team, we are well-prepared for sustainable growth and truly appreciate the dedication, expertise and positive energy Fleur brought to our company.
Answers to the most common questions we receive:
Earlier than you think. We recommend to do this soon as possible, our smallest clients are teams of 10.
If you are scaling, hiring frequently, or experiencing growing pains, it’s time.
A solid foundation doesn’t only prevent headaches with compliance and admin, it makes growing your team way smoother. It improves the employee experience, and helps your people stay engaged from day one.
You'll notice a difference very quickly, and wonder how you ever worked without us.
We always kick off with a quick scan to understand where you are today. A short survey, a few conversations, and a snoop around to see what you already have in place.
From there, we figure out what is needed to create a rock-solid foundation in a smart and scalable way.
That usually includes things like:
- Review and design of all core HR processes
- Contracts, policies & compliance essentials
- Good documentation and Employee Handbook
- Setting up or improving HR tools, like your HRIS & ATS
- Payroll processes and Arbo (company doctor)
- Salary framework and benchmarking / levelling
- Values, culture, learning
- ... and more
We tailor everything to your growth phase, so you only invest in what truly helps your people and business thrive.
Because we’ve built this many times before, and that makes it much faster and smoother.
Your employees expect basics to be in place before you hire your first full-time HR professional. We set everything up properly, so your future HR hire can hit the ground running, instead of spending months building the basics.
Once the foundation is ready, we either hand everything over or stay on as your ongoing (part-time) HR partner.
We love these type of assignments and everyone in our team has experience with building the foundations. Our core team availability varies per week, and whilst we can always start within a few days or weeks - not every consultant is available.
We often start with ramping up and expand our hours once we know exactly what needs to be build.
When you contact us, we can let you know straight away if and when we have availability.
When we build the foundation, we normally work in a team, as this requires a combination of strategic expertise and a lot of execution.
The average day-rate is €800,-
The exact costs will depend on the seniority you need and the phase you are in.
After our intake call, we provide a clear proposal with scope, deliverables and timeline, so you know exactly what to expect.
The amount of time needed depends on the size of your company, what is already in place, and how quickly you want everything set up.
