HR advisory

Structure your teams without slowing them down.

Advisory work with CEOs and leadership teams. For startups and scale-ups growing faster than their HR processes.

Let’s talk about your needs See what I do

CEOsLeadership teams

Your problems, my solutions.

Talent review

The problem

You don’t really know who to grow, or who might leave.

What I do

I map performance and potential team by team, from the leadership team to individual contributors, with each manager.

What you get

A shared view of your talent, and clear decisions: who to grow, how and when.

Compensation & benefits

The problem

Pay rises are negotiated case by case, and the gaps keep widening.

What I do

I build your salary bands and check them for internal consistency and against the market.

What you get

Salary bands and pay-rise rules you can explain to everyone.

Performance management

The problem

Annual reviews are a box-ticking exercise, and nobody uses them.

What I do

I simplify the system: objectives, reviews, ongoing check-ins.

What you get

A simple process managers actually use.

Manager development

The problem

Your best experts became managers without anyone teaching them how to manage.

What I do

I train and coach your managers: feedback, hiring, running reviews.

What you get

Managers who know how to hire, assess and grow their team.

In practice

A diagnosis, then a decision.

Every assignment ends with clear decisions and a plan your managers can own, not a report that gets filed away.

Talent review · example

Scope: Sales team · 14 people
Diagnosis: 3 people ready to manage, 2 paid below market
Decision: Bands reviewed before promotions, 6-month plan

What they say

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Léa several times at Cercle, both on hiring and on broader HR consulting projects.
Léa excels at what she does. First, she has great intuition and a real feel for people, which means she very quickly understands what the company needs and spots candidates’ strengths and potential.
She has strong social intelligence, and she’s autonomous, organised and highly efficient.
She knows how to put her experience and network to work, and doesn’t hesitate to clarify a brief or challenge it when needed.
On top of that, Léa is genuinely great to work with.
I highly recommend her.

Derek Barbolla, Founder & Artistic Director, CercleTranslated from French

I’ve worked with Léa on several hires and HR advisory projects. She stands out for her ability to quickly grasp what’s at stake for a company, identify the right talent and turn a sometimes complex need into concrete solutions.
She goes well beyond recruitment: she brings real business sense, reads people extremely well and knows how to challenge a brief in the right way. She has also given me plenty of HR advice, which makes working with her genuine, high-quality consulting.
Proactive, committed and remarkably efficient, she builds trust with clients and candidates alike. A brilliant professional who is always a pleasure to work with. I recommend Léa without hesitation!
