Fractional Services for the Small/Mid-Size Business

---

Originating in financial institutions and academia, the fractional employee is one who divides their work week among multiple employers. Sometimes the time is defined in discrete terms, such as two days at one company and three days at another.  In other situations, the arrangement may be aligned with accountability, with the hours fluctuating as needed to meet the weekly needs of the business.

Fractional employment is not freelance work; employment is not contingent on a single project or campaign. It is ongoing like a typical employer/employee relationship. Fractional employees generally forego benefits such as medical and dental, but in exchange, they receive greater flexibility over work/life balance and maintain the pace of life they prefer.  

Retaining fractional executives brings valuable experience and guidance to companies that find full-time employment out of alignment with the amount of work required, or inaccessible due to financial constraints.

If your company has the need for executive level experience and expertise, but the workload doesn't appear to require a full-time position, then fractional employment could be a potential solution to fill your leadership void.
