Mercer, a global consulting leader in talent, health, retirement and investments announced today that it will debut its digitally driven ‘HR on-demand’ solution Mercer PeoplePro™ at TechCrunch Disrupt NY 2016 (May 9-11). As an official HR Innovation sponsor of TechCrunch Disrupt NY, Mercer PeoplePro offers small to medium enterprises high quality HR expertise on demand in a budget friendly manner.

“Mercer PeoplePro fills a crucial business gap for fast-moving companies that do not have the time, staff or sometimes the expertise to navigate crucial HR and workforce issues that will either fuel or inhibit their success,” said Jo-Anne Bloch, Partner and Mercer Innovation Hub Team Leader. “Through Mercer PeoplePro this dynamic business segment now has on-demand access to some of the most experienced HR consultants in the world, at a price that is aligned to their business realities.”

The consultants found on Mercer PeoplePro (referred to as “PROs”) are accomplished Mercer and consulting-industry alumni who have chosen to work more flexibly, have retired from full time work, or have other responsibilities and circumstances that demand a non-traditional work schedule. Flexible work arrangements are on the rise and Mercer PeoplePro provides a framework for these highly skilled HR consultants to fill vital business needs for these agile and emerging businesses.
