List the overhead hires Kestrel Power is planning in the Q3 2026 board deck, in priority order.
- 1environment
The board deck appendix plans seven overhead roles: a Compliance & Safety Manager (November 2026, search underway), three developers (November 2026), two sales hires (November and December 2026), a Marketing Lead (November 2026), a Recruiter (December 2026), a Chief Commercial Officer (Q1 2027) and an HR Administrator (Q1 2027). Want me to turn this into an overhead plan with quarterly timing and cost per role?

ask_arkherHere is the overhead plan by start quarter. The deck doesn't rank the hires by priority, so I ordered them by planned start date. The salaries are base salary only, per person per year, and the deck gives no benefits or burden costs [4]. **Q4 2026 starts** | Role | Start | Base salary | |---|---|---| | Compliance & Safety Manager | Nov 2026 (search underway) | $170K | | Developers (3) | Nov 2026 | $165K each | | Sales (2) | Nov and Dec 2026 | $160K each | | Marketing Lead | Nov 2026 | $150K | | Recruiter | Dec 2026 | $130K | **Q1 2027 starts** | Role | Start | Base salary | |---|---|---| | Chief Commercial Officer | Q1 2027 | $240K | | HR Administrator | Q1 2027 | $95K | [4] My own arithmetic from those figures (not stated in the deck): - The three developers come to $495K a year, and the two sales hires to $320K a year. - All 10 overhead heads together come to about $1.6M a year in base salary. That is a full-year run-rate, not the cost in FY26. This is 7 roles but 10 people. Field hires are planned separately: 6 field technicians as Q4 work converts, and 8 Remote Operations Center operators in May 2027 [4]. The current field team is 4 technicians, and the plan is 10 if all four pending contracts close [9]. Should I add a view of when these costs land against the Q4 revenue forecast? - Yes, compare to the forecast - No, this is enough
