Fractional and Interim Placement

Seasoned sustainability recruiters, Weinreb Group primarily places full time Chief Sustainability Officers (CSOs) and supports CSOs to build out their sustainability teams. We also offer placement of:

  • Fractional CSOs and sustainability subject matter specialists
  • Interim CSOs and technical sustainability team members

The benefits of hiring a fractional employee

Fractional roles are designed to be less than full time such as two days a week. Wherever the reason you determine you need a fractional employee, the gains are pretty clear:

  • Cost savings: Fractional employees receive a portion of pay, making them more affordable than a full time hire.
  • Senior expertise: Many fractional leaders have accumulated years of experience in a specific sustainability area, such as regulatory frameworks or decarbonization strategies, which can be extremely valuable for specific projects, but may not be required full time.
  • Efficiency: A fractional employee can often hit the ground running.
  • Risk reduction: Engaging a fractional employee can lead to a full time hire, but an initial fractional engagement allows both you and the employee to determine if it’s the right fit.

The benefits of hiring an interim employee

Interim roles are temporary, with a fixed start and end date. The benefits of an interim sustainability hire include:

  • Temporary coverage: An interim employee can cover for a colleague on parental leave, disability or sabbatical during a specific period of time.
  • Drop-in expertise: Some sustainability work, such as reporting, is “seasonal.” Engaging a specialist to work during peak times throughout the annual cycle creates a viable alternative to a full time hire.
  • Scalability: Sustainability teams shrink and grow fairly often, depending on project length, budgets, goals and even time of year, so a fractional hire offers much needed flexibility.

    ZoetisCase Study: Placing and Interim Operations Leader within Zoetis

    Zoetis, a global leader in animal health, retained Weinreb Group to place an interim Sustainability Operations leader. It needed a global leader to operationalize a sustainability strategy through its manufacturing sites and lead an experienced, distributed team.

    Within three weeks Weinreb Group presented six qualified consultants, the client interviewed three, and ultimately retained one as an interim consultant. The successful consultant was immediately able to jump in and start making an impact by supporting annual budgeting, broad strategy development, and headcount forecasting for the business unit. The placement was so successful, he traveled to international sites to conduct in-person meetings on behalf of Zoetis.
