Exec Capital is pleased to announce the expansion of its fractional team, now providing tailored recruitment solutions for a wide array of C-suite positions. This development follows the firm’s successful launch of fractional CEO roles in 2023, aimed at enhancing the accessibility of leading professionals for start-ups and SMEs. The programme’s expansion now includes recruitment solutions for other key executive roles, such as CMOs and CFOs.
Situated at the cutting edge of the executive recruitment sector, Exec Capital meets the rising demand for versatile job arrangements from both job seekers and businesses.
The agency delivers a tailored recruitment service, encompassing a diverse selection of solutions, including targeted executive searches and specialised role recruitment. These services enable the hiring of executives for senior roles on a flexible, part-time basis, for periods ranging from one to four days per week, on either short or long-term agreements. This flexibility is ideally suited for businesses navigating rapid expansion or those looking for an economical approach to bolstering their leadership teams.
Recent research highlights a 20% increase in the hiring of fractional executives from 2022 to 2023, with expectations for this trend to grow. The move towards part-time and fractional employment is facilitating a better balance between work and personal life for executives. Fractional hiring offers organisations the chance to tap into top-tier talent without the concern of executive burnout.
Fractional executives are offered without the necessity for a long-term engagement, giving businesses the opportunity to ‘try before they buy’ when considering a permanent appointment. Industries across the board are progressively turning to fractional hiring as a cost-effective way to draw in skilled professionals. This approach can be applied to bridge skill shortages or to fill in for absent staff members.
Fractional hiring for executive roles is particularly advantageous for individuals transitioning across industries, allowing those from non-standard backgrounds to accumulate experience in niche roles. Exec Capital has observed an uptick in professionals moving across fields and specialities.
The term ‘fractional executive’ is not just for individuals progressing up the career ladder; it also resonates with experienced professionals in the mid-to-late stages of their careers who are in search of more flexibility and new challenges. The team of fractional experts at Exec Capital includes professionals with specific industry expertise, from logistics to investment management.
