Fractional executives
Operating leadership, alongside the platform.
A prop firm can have a good platform and still be badly run. Risk policy that nobody senior owns, operations that scale by adding people, finances that are reconciled rather than managed — these are leadership gaps, and no amount of software closes them.
For firms that need that capacity without a full-time executive hire, Nexus places experienced operators into defined seats with real accountability.
Three seats you can fill this quarter
Fractional Risk Officer
Owns risk policy, evaluation rule design, breach and dispute posture, and the relationship between risk decisions and payout exposure.
Fractional COO
Owns operating cadence, support and payout workflow, vendor management and the operational readiness behind launches and migrations.
Fractional CFO
Owns unit economics, payout and reserve modelling, pricing structure and the financial reporting a growing firm eventually has to produce.
How an engagement runs
- 01
Scope and match
Define the seat, the decisions it owns and what it is accountable for, then match an operator to it. A vague mandate produces an expensive advisor rather than an executive.
- 02
Retainer plus revenue share
A base retainer with a revenue-share component, so the operator's incentive is tied to the firm performing rather than to hours logged.
- 03
Embed and execute
The operator works inside your cadence with real authority in their domain — not a monthly advisory call.
- 04
Scale or graduate
The engagement either scales with the firm or hands off cleanly to a full-time hire, with the operating system documented rather than held in someone's head.
Is a fractional executive right for you?
Usually yes if you can name a decision that keeps escalating to a founder who does not have time to own it. Usually no if the underlying problem is that the platform cannot produce the information the decision needs — in which case fix that first.
If you are unsure which it is, that is a reasonable thing to work out on a call.
