At Connectd, we are witnessing the emergence of a new world of work, characterised by individuals embracing portfolio careers and organisations scaling smarter with fractional talent.

I’m proud to share our latest guide: A fractional future: the revolution reshaping modern careers.

Here are the standout highlights:

🔺 Listings surge 110% YoY – The average startup is now hiring 4 fractional leaders instead of 2. 

📈 Fractional placements up 181% YoY – More people than ever are choosing autonomy and impact over traditional full-time roles.

🔍 Record search volumes – July 2025 saw all-time highs for terms like “fractional CFO” and “fractional CTO.” 

💸 35% cost savings – Startups are cutting staffing costs by over a third with fractional hires, without compromising on seniority or skill.

🇺🇸 The US leads the way – 60% of the world’s fractional talent is based in America.

🇬🇧 The UK is catching up – 47% of UK businesses now actively embrace fractional roles.

💻 Tech dominates demand – Tech companies account for 30% of all fractional placements showing that the most innovative sectors are going flexible.

Throughout my time at Connectd, I keep hearing the same thing from founders:
Once they bring the right advisor on board, something shifts.

Sometimes the impact is obvious. Their pitch tightens up, the story finally lands and investor meetings feel completely different. Other times it is more subtle, but you can sense it. They show up with more clarity and direction, and investors pick up on that straight away.

If you’re getting ready for a round, we’re running a session on 26 November at 2PM GMT / 9AM EST about how advisors can help founders raise with more confidence.
