An HR consultant for Texas owners who do not have an HR person

You are not looking up “HR” for fun. Something is sitting on your desk: a hire, a conflict, a handbook that does not sound like you, a manager who will not manage. I sit with that. Then we do the work.

I’m John Singleton, SHRM-CP — Dallas–Fort Worth. Sixteen years in senior HR, now fractional so you get the senior seat without a $120,000 director.

What owners usually need

Where this work happens

In person in Dallas–Fort Worth when it helps. By regular calls for Houston, Austin, Waco, and the rest of Texas. Same partner. Same standard. No flight required for you to have senior HR.

FAQ

Questions owners actually ask

What is fractional HR?
Senior HR for a set number of hours a month — not a full-time hire, not a call-center. You get a person who already knows the work: hiring, employee relations, Texas compliance, and a quiet place to talk through people decisions.
Who is this for?
Texas owners who are too small for a full-time HR director and too exposed to keep Googling it at night. Typical shops are about 15–80 people. If HR is sitting on your shoulders, that is the seat.
Do you only work in Dallas–Fort Worth?
John is based in the DFW area (Waxahachie) and sits with DFW owners in person when it helps. Houston, Austin, Waco, and the rest of Texas are served the same way — by phone and video, with the same senior work.
How is this different from payroll or a PEPM HR platform?
Payroll runs pay. A platform stores files. Neither one sits with you before a hard conversation, writes the lane so two people stop colliding, or tells you whether that contractor setup is actually a problem. That is the work.
What does it cost?
Month-to-month. Sounding Board starts at $1,500 a month for about ten hours. Project work can be hourly. No long-term contract. You should feel the fit in the first month.
Is this legal advice?
No. Quick HR is HR counsel in the practical sense — process, people, and Texas employer practice. For a legal opinion, you still want an employment attorney. We work alongside that, not instead of it.
