Fractional executive

A fractional executive is a senior leader who works part-time or on contract across one or more companies — a fractional CFO or CMO, for example — giving a business C-suite expertise without a full-time hire.

Fractional roles suit companies that need senior judgement but not a full-time seat yet — common at early-stage and scaling businesses bridging to a permanent hire.
