What are the benefits of hiring an HR advisor?

Your HR doesn't stand still

Our HR advisors work independently and know their way around a scale-up environment. They pick up where they left off, and HR continues to run smoothly, without you having to spend time explaining or onboarding.

Recognizes your situation

We recognize the patterns: the cultural pressure, the salary challenges, onboarding that no longer scales. You notice that from day one.

Objective perspective

What has become invisible internally is immediately visible to someone from the outside. This yields fairer insights into performance, compensation, or team dynamics.

You remain in control

You decide how long and how many days per week. Temporary is temporary. And if you want to switch to permanent HR support afterwards? We'll arrange that.

What does hiring an HR advisor through VIE People involve?

Hiring an HR advisor through VIE People means adding an experienced HR professional to your organisation, temporarily or on a structural basis. You get someone who advises on concrete issues and thinks along on execution from day one.

Our advisors work independently and pick things up right away. They ask the questions that matter and know exactly what your growth stage needs, through the Scale-up Journey model. That knowledge doesn't need to be built up, they bring it with them.

They're never on their own either. 40+ HR consultants think along and provide input where needed, including HR Tech specialists. You keep one trusted point of contact.

Because our advisors are on VIE People's payroll, you automatically comply with the Dutch DBA law. We agree together on the scope and duration of the assignment, based on what your organisation needs.

When do you hire an HR advisor?

Do you recognize any of the following situations? Then hiring an HR advisor through VIE People is probably exactly what you need.

Your HR advisor is temporarily away

Illness, maternity leave, or a sudden departure. HR does not stop just because the permanent staff member is absent. An interim HR advisor takes over the duties and ensures that nothing is left undone.

Your HR cannot keep up with the growth

New employees, new structures, new challenges regarding compensation and culture. You need someone to take it on now.

You are facing a complex HR issue

Rising absenteeism, a labor dispute, or a reorganization. These types of situations call for someone with the right experience who can switch gears quickly.

You want to make HR more professional

You know thatHR betteryou need to, but you don't have the capacity to take it on yourself. An HR advisor brings structure and lays the foundation for further growth.

You are looking for a successor but do not want to leave a gap

You are looking for a permanent HR professional, but recruitment takes time. An interim HR advisor bridges that period.

You are considering structural HR support

Hiring an HR advisor is also a way to discover what VIE People can do for your organization, without immediately committing to a long-term process.

Frequently asked questions about hiring an HR advisor

How much does it cost to hire an HR advisor through VIE People?

The investment depends on the advisor's level and the duration of the assignment. If you commit to a longer period, you'll receive a more competitive rate. Contact us for a quote tailored to your specific situation.

How soon can an HR advisor start?

That varies by situation, but expect 2 to 3 weeks. In some cases, it takes a bit longer, up to 1.5 months. We always aim to make the right match as quickly as possible.

What is the difference between hiring an HR advisor and employing a permanent HR employee?

Hiring an HR advisor offers flexibility and immediate availability. You only pay for what you need, without the commitments of a permanent employment contract. A permanent employee requires a lengthy recruitment process and a long-term commitment. Hiring is beneficial when you need to act quickly or require temporary additional expertise.

What is the difference between an HR advisor and an HR manager?

An HR advisor focuses on providing advice and guidance on specific HR issues. An HR manager oversees the entire HR function, including operational tasks and people management. At VIE People, we work with you to determine which profile best suits your situation.

What is the DBA Act and why is it relevant when hiring an HR advisor?

The DBA Act determines when someone can work as an independent contractor and when an employment relationship exists. If you hire a freelancer who effectively functions as an employee, you, as the client, risk fines and back taxes. Because our HR advisors are on VIE People's payroll, you automatically comply with the DBA Act. You are fully compliant, without having to worry about it.
