Strategic HR Advisory

Executive-level HR leadership integrated into business strategy.

Some organizations reach a point where HR decisions carry operational, financial, and cultural weight.

At that stage, what’s needed isn’t more tools or more activity.
It’s experienced executive judgment.

Salt & Light Advisors provides structured Strategic HR Advisory for organizations that want HR aligned with leadership decisions, business performance, and long-term growth.

This is not outsourced HR.
This is executive-level partnership.

What Strategic HR Advisory Looks Like

Every advisory engagement operates within a clear structure:

  • Your internal team executes.

  • We set strategic direction and priorities.

  • We provide executive-level judgment and risk oversight.

  • Leadership decisions are supported with clarity — not reactivity.

This structure protects accountability while elevating the maturity of your HR function.

Strategic Advisory Is Most Effective When:

  • Internal HR or operational leadership is in place

  • The organization is navigating growth or structural complexity

  • Leadership wants experienced HR insight at the table

  • Decisions carry meaningful financial or compliance risk

  • Partnership is valued over transactional support


Advisory Engagement Levels

Engagement depth depends on organizational complexity and desired level of involvement.

We operate across three structured levels of strategic advisory.
