What does outsourcing HR through VIE People entail?

Outsourcing HR through VIE People means entrusting HR tasks to an experienced consultant, on a temporary or permanent basis. You choose whether this is done on a fractional, interim, or project basis.

Our consultants work independently and pick up where they left off immediately. They ask the questions that matter and, using the Scale-up Journey model, know exactly what your growth phase requires. We don't need to build that knowledge; they bring it with them.

They are never alone, either. 40+ HR consultants provide support and brainstorm where necessary, including specialists in HR Tech. You maintain a single trusted point of contact.

Because our consultants are on VIE People's payroll, you automatically comply with the DBA Act. We determine the content and duration of the process together, based on your organization's needs.

When is outsourcing HR smart for your scale-up?

Outsourcing HR is especially smart if your HR challenge exceeds your current capacity, whether temporary or structural. Do you recognize any of these situations?

You are growing faster than your HR team can handle

New employees, new structures, new questions regarding compensation and culture.

Your HR consultant is temporarily away

Illness, leave, or an unexpected departure. HR doesn't stop, so the tasks need to land somewhere.

You want to professionalize, but lack the capacity.

You know that HR could be better, but you don't have time for it yourself.

You have a specific issue

A reorganization, rising absenteeism, or a stalled reward structure calls for someone with experience.

You are torn between hiring it yourself or outsourcing

Hiring a permanent HR employee requires a lengthy recruitment process. Outsourcing is faster and without long-term obligations.

You are looking for a permanent HR professional, but do not want to leave a gap.

Recruiting a permanent employee takes time. Outsourcing HR bridges that period, ensuring HR does not come to a standstill.

Frequently asked questions about interim HR

What is the difference between an interim HR manager and a fractional HR professional?

An interim HR manager is temporarily available for a specific situation or period, such as maternity leave cover, a reorganization, or a rapid growth phase. A fractional HR professional is a structural part of your organization, working a fixed number of days per week. Interim is finite and situation-specific. Fractional is ongoing and long-term oriented.

How quickly can an interim HR professional start?

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

How much does interim HR cost through VIE People?

The cost depends on the professional's experience level and the duration of the assignment. Longer commitments qualify for a more competitive rate. Contact us for a personalized estimate tailored to your situation.

What if it doesn't click with the People Partner?

We'll resolve that. We'll discuss what's not working and, if needed, switch to a more suitable profile. You're not committed.

Which organizations is interim HR suitable for?

VIE People works with scale-ups ranging from 25 to 500 FTE. Interim HR is particularly suitable when your organization is too large to continue managing HR on an ad-hoc basis, but not yet ready for a full-time HR department. It's also ideal if you temporarily need extra capacity or specific expertise.

How does interim HR through VIE People differ from a secondment agency?

Our HR professionals are on VIE People's payroll. This means you automatically comply with the DBA Act and avoid the risk of false self-employment. While a secondment agency provides capacity, we deliver experience tailored to your growth stage. Our professionals understand the dynamics of scale-ups and work independently. They don't wait around; they take initiative.

What is the DBA Act and why is it relevant for interim HR?

The DBA Act (Deregulation of Assessment of Employment Relationships) regulates when someone can work as a self-employed person and when an employment relationship exists. If you hire a freelancer who actually functions as an employee, as a client, you run the risk of fines and additional tax assessments. Because our professionals are on VIE People's payroll, you won't have to worry about that. You are fully compliant, without having to give it a second thought.

How do I ensure the interim professional gets up to speed quickly?

We'll arrange that together during our initial meeting. We'll identify in advance what's happening, what the priorities are, and what the professional needs to get started immediately. You won't have to spend weeks on explanations.

What happens after the interim project?

That varies by organization. Some clients transition to ongoing HR support through the VIE HR model after an interim project. For others, the interim project is sufficient. We always work together to determine the logical next step, without any pressure.
