Any Fractional CMOs here who can answer my question?
How do you maintain the balance between strategic focus and operational progress within your role as a fCMO? What tools and frameworks do you use to manage this? Grateful if any of you could share tips / pitfalls to watch out for…

Hi everyone, this is a real long-shot but I thought I’d post here just in case! Is there anyone here who uses SeedProd? I’m in need of some help on a website I’m managing which is on WordPress and instead of something like Elementor or Divi on top, they have SeedProd but finding someone who uses this is proving super difficult! If you use it and can provide advice (will be paid of course!) please shout.

A niche ask it seems! I can’t see we have anyone who specifically mentions SeedProd in their profile, but here are a few community members who work with WordPress generally who may be able to help: Will Helliwell, Rui Duarte, Raghav Viswakumar, Mark Wong, Paul Tomlinson, Gareth Moore, Max Lyuchin, lakshmi narasimhan narasimhan, Jules Perkins

Hi, I’m Monica – part strategic HR leader, part chaos-tamer, part straight-talker.
I’ve spent 20+ years as a People exec helping companies in the US and EU grow without losing their people or their minds. I’ve built teams from scratch, led reorgs that actually worked, and created compensation strategies that make sense to both the CFO and the newest hire.
Now that I have transitioned to fractional gigs, I work with founders, execs, and HR teams who want simple, scalable, compliant people operations. I’m at my best when there’s a big challenge on the table: messy processes, unclear roles, looming compliance deadlines. My style is collaborative but direct so we get things done without unnecessary complexity (I’m Sagittarius after all
)When I’m not fixing people systems, you’ll find me with my daughter, riding out in nature with our dog, splitting time between Swedish countryside life and my Texan roots.
Excited to join the Collective! Ping me if yo…

MoneyPlus, a 200-person financial services company that helps consumers tackle problem debt, is looking for a fractional FP&A leader for the next 2-3 months, until their new FP&A hire joins. The right person needs to be able to hit the ground running, and ideally has worked in the B2C Finance industry, or another regulated industry. Experience in PE-backed companies is a plus.
The role is remote, with occasional trips to Manchester. Target day rate £650-750, though they might stretch a bit higher for the right candidate.
If interested, please ensure that your TPC profile is up-to-date, then ping me. I will do the first round of screening (I am a board member).

Matthew Milner from Entrepreneurs Collective is the organiser. He has just joined TPC, so his profile is a bit empty ATM, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask

Hi Ben,
Thanks for the announcement. It would be great to meet some of you next Tuesday. If it’s your job to stop startups running out of money, or get them in shape to raise more we would love to have you join us on Tuesday….or possibly even more importantly if you were a CFO/FD or CAO in the corporate world and are interested in transitioning to startups this could be evening for you.

Thanks Ben, Unfortunately I already have an other commitment tonight. I would love to join similar events in the future.
