Kraft People

Kraft People provides HR Strategy and People Advisory, working with growing businesses across Australia from its base in Scarborough, Queensland, under founder and managing consultant Deb Kraft.

• Its Scale-Ready Foundations program is a three-month engagement running through diagnosis (an HR and compliance audit), design (strategy and workforce planning documents) and delivery (a 12-month implementation plan).
• Services cover HR strategy and policy design, workforce planning, organisational structuring and change management for organisations that are scaling.
• A Flexible Engagement retainer gives businesses with 10 to 30 or more employees ongoing access to senior HR advisory, with a minimum three-month commitment.
• The firm positions itself against process heavy, textbook HR, aiming to give leaders direct, practical support instead.

Best for: growing Australian businesses of roughly 10 to 30 or more staff that need hands-on HR strategy and workforce planning support without hiring a full-time HR leader.

Kraft People offers Interim HR Leadership through a fractional chief people officer model, giving Australian businesses senior HR support without a permanent executive hire.

• The Flexible Engagement retainer runs on a fixed monthly basis, with a minimum three-month commitment, aimed at teams of 10 to 30 or more employees.
• Engagements give direct access to senior HR expertise that can be applied to any advisory or project work as it arises, described by the firm as support without the headcount cost.
• The model is delivered by founder and managing consultant Deb Kraft from the firm’s Scarborough, Queensland base.

Best for: scaling businesses that need ongoing, senior HR leadership on a fractional basis rather than a full-time in-house hire.
