What is an Interim or Fractional Executive?
INTERIM: A full-time executive hired on a fixed-term basis to fill a leadership gap or deliver a specific transformation.
FRACTIONAL: A part-time executive who divides their expertise across multiple organisations, providing senior leadership impact without full-time cost.
Why This Matters
