Fractional executive marketplace fees

Fees

Our fractional executive marketplace fees are simple. A fractional leader works for you part of the week. You pay us nothing until that person starts. Sending a requirement and meeting a shortlist are free. Then one agreement and one invoice. Talent never pays.

  • No deposit to get started
  • Every requirement read by us
  • A best-fit shortlist, not a pile of CVs
  • One agreement, one invoice

Fractional executive marketplace fees in plain words

There is no deposit. Sending a requirement and getting a shortlist cost nothing. When you choose someone and they start, you sign one agreement with us and get one invoice that covers the work.

We share our terms when we introduce people. We agree them with you in writing before anything starts, so there are no surprises. Talent never pays us.

To start, send your requirement. It is free.

Tell us the role and the hours. We send you a shortlist of people who fit.

Who pays

Hiring company

  • One invoice from us, once the person starts
  • No deposit, and nothing to send a requirement or meet a shortlist

Talent

  • Nothing to apply, to be shortlisted or to be placed

Why it works this way

Charging talent a share of what they earn pushes good people away. We want the best people to apply, so the company that hires pays the fee.

We earn nothing for sending you a long list of names. We earn only when the person you choose starts. One agreement and one invoice keep the paperwork simple for you.

FAQ

Fee questions

When do I pay?

Only when the person starts. There is no deposit. Sending a requirement, getting a shortlist and talking to people are free. If you do not hire, you owe nothing.

What do I get for the fee?

We read your requirement, look for people who fit, send you a shortlist with a note on each person, and handle the agreement and the invoice. You deal with us, not with each person separately.

How do I find out the terms?

We share our terms when we introduce people to you, and confirm them in writing before anything starts.

Does talent pay anything?

No. Talent never pays to apply, to be shortlisted or to be placed, and we take nothing from what they earn.

Do I pay the person and you separately?

No. You get one agreement and one invoice from us, covering the work. The terms are agreed in writing before anything starts.

What if I hire someone from a shortlist without telling you?

If you engage someone we introduced, our terms apply, whichever way it is arranged. The terms page sets this out.
