Frontline Source Group Launches Fractional Executive Division
The Dallas-based staffing firm is placing part-time C-suite leaders with companies across the United States.
Updated on Nov. 6, 2026 in People
Frontline Source Group, a Dallas staffing and executive search firm founded in 2004, has launched a fractional executive division. The division begins with ten part-time C-suite roles, and clients pay only for the hours they use.
Why it matters
Full-time C-suite salaries range from $100,000 to over $200,000 a year, making senior leadership a major fixed expense for many companies. Frontline reports growing client requests for part-time executives, reflecting a broader shift toward fractional leadership.
Fractional roles rose from 9 to 24 out of every 1,000 new executive job postings over the last five years, according to Revelio Labs data. Lightcast research shows 97% of fractional postings come from small and mid-sized companies.

Market Landscape
Revelio Labs data shows fractional executive roles rising from 9 to 24 per 1,000 new executive postings over five years. Frontline's division places it within this growing segment, which Lightcast research shows is concentrated among small and mid-sized companies.
Companies that cannot justify a full-time C-suite salary can now hire part-time executives and pay only for the hours they use. Businesses considering a full-time hire may first test the fit through a fractional arrangement with a conversion option.
The takeaway
Fractional executive hiring offers a way for growing companies to access senior leadership without a full-time commitment. Companies weighing the cost of a C-suite hire can compare fractional arrangements with conversion options before committing.
What happens next
Frontline Source Group will add fractional CIO, CISO, and CMO roles at a later date, based on client demand.
