We take time to understand your business, your team, and the bigger picture behind the hire. That first conversation lays the groundwork for a real partnership and makes sure we’re working toward the same definition of success.

Pre-Search Research

Pre-Search Research

Before we start searching, we dive into your company, your market, and the role itself. We map out where the right talent might be, build sample profiles, and prepare smart questions so we can hit the ground running.

Kickoff Meeting

Kickoff Meeting

We kick things off with a focused meeting where we narrow down the essentials. Together, we talk through must-haves, cultural fit, salary expectations, and make sure we’re all on the same page about the role and how the search will run.

Precision Search

Precision Search

We start contacting candidates right away, but we don’t rush it. Every candidate is carefully reviewed, with our team collaborating and double-checking each profile to make sure we’re finding the best possible matches.

Candidate Assessment

Candidate Assessment

We personally interview every candidate, digging into their skills, motivations, past results, and how they’d fit into your team. Our assessments go deeper than resumes so we truly understand each person’s story and what they can bring to your business.

Presentation

You’ll get a curated shortlist of 3–4 top candidates, each with a clear summary showing how their skills and experience match what you’re looking for. We make it easy for you to decide with confidence. And if none are quite right, we use your feedback to refine our search and bring you candidates who are even better aligned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our fractional HR services. From compliance and payroll to the partnership model that drives 97% retention across Latin America.

What is fractional HR and how does it work?

Fractional HR gives you access to senior HR experts without hiring full-time HR staff. Our specialists embed into your operations part-time to handle recruiting, compliance, and HR processes. You get dedicated support scaled to your actual needs.

What HR functions can a fractional HR team handle?

Our fractional HR team manages the full spectrum: recruiting, employee onboarding, benefits administration, HR compliance, job descriptions, and HR policies. You choose which HR responsibilities to delegate based on your current gaps.

What is the difference between fractional HR and HR consulting services?

HR consulting services provide advice and strategy recommendations. Fractional HR actually executes the work. Lupa does both: we help with HR strategy and guidance, then handle recruiting, compliance support, and administration directly.

When should a company consider fractional HR over full-time HR?

Fractional HR works best when you need senior expertise but lack the volume for in-house HR staff. Ideal for companies scaling internationally, managing short-term project leadership, or filling gaps while building internal capabilities.

How does fractional HR handle compliance across different countries?

Each Latin American country has unique labor laws and regulatory requirements. Our HR experts live and work in these markets, staying current on employment law changes so your contracts and HR policies remain compliant without guesswork.

Can fractional HR help develop job descriptions and HR policies?

Yes. Beyond filling roles, we conduct gap analysis on your current HR processes and help build job descriptions, onboarding workflows, and HR policies. Part-time, ongoing HR leadership or full-time, short-term HR leadership based on your needs.

How is fractional HR different from outsourced HR?

Outsourced HR often means handing off functions to an external vendor. Fractional HR embeds specialists directly into your team who learn your culture and operate as your HR department. Same expertise, more integration.

What makes Lupa different from other fractional HR providers?

We built our team in Latin America with people who understand local salary benchmarks, cultural dynamics, and labor laws by country. Generic providers treat LatAm as one market. We bring country-by-country intelligence that prevents costly mistakes.
