Our Vetting Process

Most platforms let anyone create a profile. We don’t.
‍
FindaFractional^® only approves applicants with verified C-suite experience, professional indemnity insurance, and a track record of delivering results in a fractional capacity.

Once vetted, you can build your profile and start meeting with businesses needing your expertise.

1. Credential Survey

Complete a short 3-minute suitability survey, giving us a full picture of your C-suite background, fractional experience and expertise.

2. Daily Screening

Our team manually reviews new applications every day, validating seniority, experience and credentials against our professional standards.

3. Approved

Only executives who meet all criteria are accepted onto the platform. You get instant access to hiring managers looking for your leadership.
