It started with an idea.
Invenio HR was established to address the complexities entrepreneurs face managing their people effectively.
After being peppered with HR questions from his (more) successful entrepreneur friends on golf courses, in the bleachers or sitting on flights, Joe Rafferty had an Aha! moment – smaller businesses needed practical, more strategic HR guidance.
So, Invenio HR was born - not in big corporate boardrooms but on golf greens, AAU basketball tournaments and airport Starbucks.
We're here for entrepreneurs, turning your people into power plays. We're professional, injected with just the right dose of humor, and committed to your success. The partner you'd want sharing your aisle.
