For finance professionals

There’s no proper market for what you do. We’re building one.

For experienced finance professionals who want to provide their judgement and experience to willing clients: scoped work, fair day rates, transparent delivery. Built by finance leaders, not recruiters.

  • Free to join, and always free to the Fraci
  • Interviewed by finance leaders, not keyword-matched
  • Choose the assignment, develop your expertise, finish the job

Incentivised to execute, not to fill a seat.

Join as a founding Fraci

Just your email for now. We’ll ask for more when we open.

One email. Nothing else, for now.

We sell what you’ve done, not what you were called.

A recruiter reads your CV for a title and a band. We read it for the four or five projects you actually delivered. Those projects are what businesses need — what their own teams cannot currently deliver.

What the market reads

Group Financial Controller

Manufacturing · £45m turnover
12 years qualified · Manchester
Seeking: FC / FD, £95–110k

Buried in the CV

The group outgrew its ERP. Consolidating twenty Xero entities with different capital structures was slow and unreliable. Project managed the migration to Microsoft Dynamics and delivered it in six months.

Why it sells

Every scaling group meets this ceiling. The difficulty is never the software — it is the transition, which done poorly costs more than keeping the old ERP.

What the market reads

Finance Director

Hospitality · £35m turnover
15 years qualified · Liverpool
Seeking: FC / FD, £115–130k

Buried in the CV

Took the business from private ownership to private equity backed. Tendered the process to three investment banks, ran the data room, drafted the CIM and carried financial, tax, legal and commercial diligence through to reinvestment and the SPA.

Why it sells

A sale from private ownership, start to finish, is the hardest version of this work. The next one is far more straightforward. Buy the experience that already exists.

What the market reads

Chief Financial Officer

Professional services · £50m turnover
18 years qualified · Leeds
Seeking: FC / FD, £145–175k

Buried in the CV

Acquired five entities, all debt financed, all integrated. One tech stack across the group, a 100-day plan for every acquisition and full migration onto group infrastructure.

Why it sells

Integration is where deals quietly fail: the legal and systems work lands after the deal team has moved to the next target. It needs experience, and it is rarely deliverable inside BAU. Separate those work streams.

Most Fraci have three or four of these. One done properly is a marketable specialism.

01

Register

Free, and about two minutes.

02

A proper conversation

What you do, what you’re worth, and whether the work you want is out there.

03

Real, scoped briefs

Put in front of the work itself, not a recruiter’s shortlist.

Questions we get asked

Is this confidential?

Yes. Nothing about you is visible to a business unless you decide it should be.

Is it really free?

Yes, permanently. Businesses pay; Fraci never do.

Do I need to be fractional already?

No. A good number of people join while still employed and weighing it up.

When does it open?

Early 2027. Founding members hear first.
