HERC HR Helps Your People Thrive and Your Business Flourish

Solving Challenges Before They Happen.

Our Services

Fractional or Consulting

  • The administrative HR role is a thing of the past. This is HR redefined—strategic, integrated, and essential. We transform HR into a trusted resource, seamlessly supporting both company and employees.

  • Consider how you invest—or don’t—in employee growth, retention, and engagement. Without a solid foundation, companies underestimate the challenges of scaling successfully.

  • Building an agile talent organization is vital yet challenging for growth. Companies rush to hire but often overlook the importance of a strategic hiring and onboarding process—whether it’s the 10th or 200th hire.

  • Emergency Room HR (ER HR): When small companies with limited HR resources face urgent challenges, fast action is key. We step in swiftly to provide immediate solutions—reach out today.

At HERC HR, we believe that the heart of every successful business is its people.

We are a queer and Arab-owned fractional consultancy, and we bring a holistic, human-centric approach to HR, people operations, and talent acquisition.

Our mission is to create safe, inclusive workplaces where individuals can thrive, and businesses can achieve sustainable growth.

With a proactive mindset, we tackle challenges before they become obstacles, ensuring that your workplace remains a supportive environment for everyone. Our approach is grounded in empathy, inclusivity, and a deep understanding of the complex dynamics that drive a successful company.

We specialize in fractional HR, people operations, and talent acquisition services that are tailored to your unique needs, empowering your organization in navigating the present as well as preparing for the future.

At HERC HR, we reframe the mindset:

“Short-term investment + continued iteration = long-term gain.”

Meet The Founder

HERC HR was founded by Jannah Bachrouche (she/her) after six years as a startup operator, where she naturally gravitated toward People/HR responsibilities and roles.

Jannah’s experiences as a queer, Lebanese, cis woman showed her how rare safe and inclusive workplaces truly are—especially in tech. While Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) have become part of the conversation, many companies still lack the foundational tools for meaningful, scalable, and non-performative change.

Jannah believes investing in HR early is essential. As companies grow, so do the complexities of managing people, culture, retention, and leadership. Without solid foundations, hyper-growth can lead to systemic issues.

Whether you’re a startup needing to build from the ground up or a larger company looking to course-correct, HERC HR can help. Ready to rethink HR and build a high-performing workplace where everyone thrives?

What Our Clients Say

“As a first-time Founder and CEO, initially, I didn't understand the value of having HR/People processes. I thought myself, the founding team, and/or our finance manager could manage it by ourselves.

Jannah fully integrated herself into the operations of our business and taught our team how HR can be a strategic asset to the business and not a cost center.

She was never afraid to jump in and roll up her sleeves on strategy and execution, and she cultivated an environment encouraging healthy debate and creativity.

Many of our employees said Passbase was the best and healthiest culture they had been a part of, and they would remember our organization for its culture and people above anything else.”

"Jannah has been instrumental in creating a safe and open environment for our employees to share their concerns, fostering a culture of trust and transparency. She has seamlessly managed our onboarding, HR administration, and platform migrations, making these processes smooth and efficient.

Her expertise in performance reviews has helped us educate our leaders on how to support and develop their teams effectively. With regular pulse checks and invaluable support in our all-hands meetings, Jannah consistently provides insights that keep our team engaged and thriving."
