• Liberti marks 25 years of fractional C-suite leadership with the launch of Liberti Club
• New report explains how to maximise partnership for profitable growth
• Perspectives from Liberti’s community of clients, principals, partners & founders of its market leading fractional providers
Liberti, the world’s largest specialist provider of fractional C-suite leadership solutions, has today launched Liberti Club with a report marking 25 years since its founder pioneered executive freedom in 2001.
“As a pioneer and champion of fractional leadership, Liberti is about more than freedom – it’s about timely connections from networks and partnerships,” said Colin Mills, Executive Chairman of Liberti and founder of The CFO Centre. “This commitment to relationship and connection has now been brought to life with the launch of Liberti Club, which will help our clients to connect, share ideas and access the right expertise at the right time, whether it’s from our global network of fractional leaders or our ecosystem of business service partners.”
“Liberti Club represents an important step forward in how we foster community, not just within our organisation, but across the wider network and ecosystem we work with every day,” added Sara Daw, Group CEO of Liberti and The CFO Centre. “Liberti’s solution, which combines functional, emotional and collective intelligence, offers something truly pioneering, impactful and affordable.”
The fractional movement is gathering momentum, with over 142,000 senior executives describing themselves as fractional on LinkedIn in January 2025 (compared to just 2,000 in 2022). The global fractional executive marketplace is predicted to quadruple to over $29billion by 2033*, with demand driven by the rising cost and risk of executive hires and a more affordable alternative that enables scaling businesses to access highly qualified directors. The cost of a bad executive hire could be up to four times salary plus incalculable damage to team morale, reputation or investor confidence.
Liberti comprises five market-leading providers of fractional leadership solutions: The CFO Centre, The Marketing Centre, People Puzzles, Kiss The Fish and YRH Finance Team. Globally, over 1,000 fractional senior executive professionals support over 1,700 active clients, affordably bringing enterprise level technical knowledge and functional experience to ambitious SMEs as part of a collective team.
Created to help SMEs maximise impact and value from Liberti’s fractional leadership solutions, Liberti Club is a curated year-round programme of regional events, regular business insights and on-demand support from our network of principals and partners.
“Liberti Club’s first report: Stronger Together – The Future of Leadership & Growth, explains how fractional leaders are enabling businesses to scale faster and more profitably as part of a joined-up team, with client case studies, Q&As and commentaries from our group leaders,” said Liberti Club Director Alex Evans. “It also showcases some of the valued partners in our ecosystem who support both our client businesses and our principals, with services ranging from insurance, corporate finance and wealth advisory to accounting, tax and transformation services. This joined-up, one-stop-shop approach is what truly differentiates Liberti’s fractional offering, and how we help clients to maximise value and impact from the best partners.”
This new report is co-authored by all five of Liberti’s sister businesses alongside Programme Partners who are supporting Liberti Club’s national campaign and regional events series to help SME founders and CEOs to learn and connect in 2026. These include: Amber River, Blick Rothenberg, Enablists, Initium, and Partners&.
