Executive Staffing
Interim and fractional executives who stabilize, scale, and lead through transition — CIOs, CTOs, VPs, and Directors placed in weeks, not quarters.
Talk to a Staffing AdvisorLeadership Gaps Cost More Than You Think
A vacant VP or Director seat doesn't just slow projects — it stalls decision-making, erodes team morale, and puts strategic initiatives on ice. And the longer it takes to fill, the more expensive the vacancy becomes. Executive search firms take 4–6 months. You don't have that kind of time.
DASH2 places interim and fractional executives who step in with authority, stabilize the team, and drive results from week one. Whether you're bridging a departure, navigating a transformation, or need senior leadership for a critical initiative, we put proven operators in the seat fast.

Executive Shortlist
Within 1–2 weeks, you see a curated slate of executives with relevant industry background, team-size experience, and a track record of impact at similar companies.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between interim and fractional?
Interim executives work full-time for a defined period — typically to bridge a departure or lead a transformation. Fractional executives work part-time on an ongoing basis, common for companies that need senior leadership but aren't ready for a full-time hire.
How quickly can an interim executive start?
Most interim executives in our network can start within 2–3 weeks. For urgent situations — sudden departure, board mandate — we've placed leaders in under 10 days.
Will an interim leader actually have authority?
That's the point. Our executives expect to own decisions, lead teams, and be accountable for results — just like a permanent hire. We help set clear scope and authority upfront so there's no ambiguity.
Can an interim convert to a permanent hire?
Yes. Many of our interim engagements convert to full-time after both sides confirm the fit. It's one of the lowest-risk ways to fill a senior role.
How is this different from an executive search firm?
Speed and flexibility. Executive search is designed for permanent placement and takes 4–6 months. We put a proven operator in the seat in weeks — and if you later want to convert or replace with a permanent hire, you haven't lost months of leadership.
