About Us
Flexibility isn't a feature. It's why we exist.
Think Fractional was built around a simple idea: senior leadership doesn't have to be all or nothing.
Priorities change. Growth accelerates. New challenges appear. What a business needs from a senior leader should be able to change with them - but the traditional options don't make that easy. A permanent hire brings fixed cost and capacity, even when the need isn't full-time. Traditional consultancy brings valuable expertise, but often from the outside, without real ownership.
We sit in the space between - experienced leaders inside the business, for exactly what it needs, and how long it needs it.
Why Think Fractional exists
Our founder, Terri Field, saw this gap from the inside – across nearly two decades working with PE-backed and high-growth businesses moving through exactly this kind of change. She watched good businesses stall between a permanent hire that was too soon and a consultancy that never quite owned the outcome.
Think Fractional was built to close that gap: senior expertise that flexes up when a business is moving fast, back when it isn’t.
"I've seen businesses default to permanent hires simply because there wasn't another credible option. Think Fractional exists to be that option."
Terri Field, Founder
What It Means - for Businesses
Senior expertise, without the full-time cost
Leadership without the salary, National Insurance, pension and other costs of a full-time hire – paying only for the days the business actually needs.
Flexibility to scale support up or down
Whatever the business needs – and it can change. Our dial-up, dial-down model means more days during a big push (a funding round, a launch, a restructure) and fewer once things settle, without renegotiating the relationship from scratch.
Faster, more focused impact
No lengthy recruitment process. Engagements can start within weeks, focused entirely on the priority that matters most right now – not a broad, generic remit.
What It Means - for the Fractional Leaders who Join Us
Independence, without isolation
You keep the flexibility and autonomy that make fractional work attractive, but with a wider network around you. A community of experienced leaders to share thinking, challenge ideas and support one another.
More time doing your best work
A model built on mutual respect
We match leaders to work where their experience genuinely fits, with clear expectations and commercial arrangements from the outset. Flexibility should work both ways, and we want every engagement to feel valuable for the leader as well as the client.
