Fractional Leadership

Why this exists

Mid-market businesses often need enterprise-style capability without enterprise-style fixed cost. A full-time CTO, COO, or Programme Director commands a salary, benefits, and a notice period. A fractional leader gives you the same calibre of judgement for 1-3 days per week, embedded in the business and accountable for outcomes rather than just advice.

Every fractional engagement includes structured knowledge transfer so that internal capability grows throughout. The aim is to make the engagement unnecessary over time, not to create dependency.

What fractional leadership includes

• 1-3 days per week of senior embedded leadership
• C-level or director-level calibre, appropriate to the role
• Governance, prioritisation, and leadership oversight
• Knowledge transfer throughout the engagement
• Flexible focus based on business need and agreed scope
• Minimum 3-month engagement; typically 6-12 months
