Fractional Director

B/Suite is a community of Black and Brown talent with expertise across several functional areas including digital media, talent management, human resources, finance, and many others. Beyond the ability to network, learn, and develop your skills, B/Suite facilitates matching between our Executives and Clients for interim or fractional staffing opportunities.

Our mission is to connect the worlds most historically oppressed talent with flexible career opportunities to help us collectively reduce power and wealth disparities, build financial and professional independence, and increase diversity across the c-suite and senior leadership.



Overview

While our client base and projects will always vary, you can expect projects to last a minimum of three months for approximately 10-25 hours per week. We often work with executive leaders and business owners in the tech, nonprofit, media, and social impact sectors.

It is expected that all B/Suite Executives lean into two areas to ensure that were able to realize our mission:

1. Calling out racism, power dynamics, systemic oppression, and privilege where necessary.
2. Supporting other Executives in the suite as often as possible. We are a community first and foremost.

Prerequisites

We are currently seeking fractional executives with expertise in executive leadership, organizational strategy, development/fundraising, talent management, and human resources. Additional requirements include:

• Minimum of 7 years of experience in your area of expertise
• Experience in leadership roles with management responsibilities
• Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional teams and manage large projects

Responsibilities

• Assess needs, narrow scope of work, and set priorities with your clients early on and determine a plan of action for the length of engagement.
• Regularly meet with your clients, document progress towards goals, understand internal shifts and updates, and provide support from your area of expertise.
• Set clear expectations regarding availability and communication for the engagement, immediately communicating any updates or changes.
• Thought partner with clients to plan projects, set goals, and solve business challenges.
• Lead with our mission and values of expertise, transparency and liberation in mind.
• Challenge racism, call out white supremacist culture, and shift power dynamics whenever safe and necessary.

Compensation

Starting compensation for Director-level executives is $70/hour. All executives are 1099 contractors. All executives are eligible for referral bonuses and free coaching and development.

Antiracism

Historically, people of color, women, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ individuals face insurmountable oppression within their professional lives. At B/Suite, we know that talent knows no bounds and is not dependent on any single story. Our organization exists to carve out opportunities for the most targeted and harmed of these groups: Black and Brown people. Statistically, within all marginalized groups, no one suffers more than Black and Brown people. By centering these identities in our work, we can dismantle systems of oppression that impact all marginalized groups.
