Fractional Experts and Partners

For individuals

Where you might fit.

These are the shapes of people we keep coming back to.

Programme and delivery leadership

PMO, assurance and recovery. People who can hold a room and a plan.

Cyber, risk and compliance specialists

Security and regulation people who build things teams actually use.

Transformation and change leads

Operating model, process and adoption. Strategy you can stand behind in delivery.

Data and AI

People who can make AI useful and safe inside a real organisation, not just demonstrate it. Adoption, governance and the security that has to come with it.

Join the network

The deal

What we look for, and what you get.

Joining the associate network or delivering alongside us, the bar is the same. So is what comes back.

We look for

Proven deliveryYou've done the work, and you can point to what changed because of you.
Straight talkingYou tell the truth, early, even when it's awkward.
You build capabilityYou leave the client's people stronger, not dependent on you.
You see it throughYou stay until it holds, not until the milestone is signed off.

You get

Senior work from day oneReal client rooms and real decisions from the first engagement. No shadowing year, and no being parked on a workstream while somebody else presents it.
No bench, no politicsYou're brought in for work that already exists, and judged on what you do in it. Nobody here is protecting a utilisation number by finding you something to look busy with.
Three markets, one barUK, UAE and Saudi Arabia. The regulatory context changes between them, the standard of work and of conduct does not, so what you build on one engagement carries to the next.
Room to buildSmall firm, still being shaped. The people who join now help decide what it becomes, rather than inheriting somebody else’s playbook and working around it.

How it works

What working with us actually involves.

Before you get in touch, the practical answers to the questions worth asking.

The shape varies

Anything from a few days of advisory work to a named role two or three days a week. We scope it around the engagement and around what you can commit.

You deliver, we sell

Winning the work is our job. You are brought in for work that already exists. Introductions are always welcome, but they are never expected of you.

Not exclusive

Most of our associates have other clients and other commitments. We plan around that rather than asking you to drop it.

You deal with a partner

No account manager in between. You agree the work with the person accountable for it, and the commercial terms are agreed before anything starts.

For companies

Partner with us.

Firms with capability next to ours, where the two of us together can take on work neither would win alone. We would rather start with one real client problem than a framework agreement.

Joint bids

Where a client needs more than either of us covers alone, we bid together. Who leads, who owns which workstream and how it is priced are agreed before anything reaches the client, so nobody is renegotiating scope in front of them halfway through.

Referrals both ways

Work that is not right for us but is right for you, and the same in reverse. No fee games, just the right firm in front of the client, and a proper handover of what we already know rather than an email introduction.

Capability we do not hold

Specialist areas next to ours rather than on top of them. Penetration testing, legal opinion, niche platform work: the things we deliberately do not do. We are looking for firms that make the offer wider, not louder.

The same standard

Whoever we put in front of a client, the bar does not move. Your people carry our name in that room and ours carry yours, which is why this is the one condition we are strict about.
