The commitment
Fractional
Senior operational capability at an agreed operating rhythm.
- Best when
- The need is ongoing but does not justify full-time leadership.
- We lead
- A defined function, cross-functional problem or leadership requirement.
- The transition
- Adjust the mandate as evidence defines the required capability.
Why the structure works
Experienced capability. A deliberate commitment.
Prove fit in real work
Understand the operating environment before making a permanent appointment.
Keep authority clear
SolidSimple leads the mandate; owners and directors retain governance decisions.
Build-and-handover in full
Build the function. Appoint the person. Hand over with control.
Run the function and establish its permanent requirement through real work. Recruitment partners can then support the search against a tested brief.
Enter and lead
Take responsibility for the function while establishing the actual requirement from inside the operation.
Build and prove
Strengthen the processes, controls, systems, reporting and management rhythm the permanent role will inherit.
Recruit and train
Define the role, assess candidates, appoint the right person and train them inside the environment they will lead.
Hand over with control
Transfer the mandate, knowledge, relationships and operating system. Remain involved until the new leader is stable.
Visibility throughout the engagement
Keep the work and decisions in view.
Each engagement includes the private Operating Centre. Priorities, responsibilities, actions and decisions stay together so owners and leaders can follow progress between reviews.
