KEI Consulting

KEI Consulting is a fractional HR firm in the Greater Boston area that gives small and mid-sized businesses HR support without a full-time HR department. Services include writing employee handbooks, building performance review and feedback processes, choosing and setting up HR software, creating repeatable hiring processes from job posting to offer, and clarifying roles as teams grow. The work is compliance-first, with particular expertise in Massachusetts employment rules, and is delivered both virtually and onsite.

Founder Katie works with owners who are growing fast, juggling many roles or handling HR internally in a way that has started to feel risky. Engagements begin with a conversation about current challenges, followed by a roadmap of what to fix first, then hands-on work building systems and closing gaps. Her stated approach is to protect both the business and its people while keeping the workplace culture aligned with the owner’s values, explained without jargon.
