Fractional Leadership Recruitment

Fractional Leadership Expertise

Fractional leadership is changing the way companies employ senior talent. Whether you’re experiencing business change, scaling rapidly, or bringing a product to market, fractional leaders offer the talent you need with added flexibility.

At Consortia, we’ve spent over a decade placing high-impact talent across Product, UX, Data, and Engineering. Now demands are growing for part-time, embedded executive expertise. We’re helping more clients tap into the power of fractional leadership to meet critical business needs without committing to a full-time hire.

We’ve seen firsthand how businesses across the UK, USA and Europe are taking on this flexible model, particularly within Product and Engineering functions. In a simular vein as non-executive directors, fractional leaders bring vision, strategic alignment, and fresh perspectives gained from operating across different industries.

Unlike contractors who deliver against specific briefs, fractional leaders become embedded in your company’s long-term goals. Whether it’s a Head of Product to steer a roadmap, a fractional CTO to guide your tech team, or an experienced leader to navigate funding rounds, the value lies in gaining this senior-level expertise as and when the demand calls.

✔️ Proven expertise
✔️ Strategic alignment
✔️ Cost-effective access to senior leadership
✔️ Flexible, scalable support
