Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Arete Executive Full time $70,000 - $120,000 per year
  • Broad range of roles across industries and role families throughout Australia
  • Highly flexible engagements to suit portfolio careers
  • Specialist provision of recruitment support

Australia is at a tipping point in how organisations engage senior leaders. Interim and Fractional executives, once seen as temporary stopgaps, are fast becoming a mainstream strategy for boards and CEOs.

The data confirms the shift:

  • 64% of executives now prefer interim work, up from 50% in 2024 (Watermark Interim Executive Survey 2025).

  • ~90% of interim assignments are C-suite (Watermark Interim Executive Survey 2025).

  • 963,100 Australians (6.5% of employed) now hold multiple jobs—the highest on record (ABS, Labour Account Australia, March 2025).

  • 339,400 vacancies remain across the economy (ABS, Job Vacancies, May 2025), keeping demand for flexible leadership solutions at historic highs.

Put simply, Interim and Fractional executives are becoming the special forces of business transformation, being high impact, outcome driven, and cost effective.

Arete Executive, one of Australia's leading executive search firms, is launching a dedicated recruitment offering to meet this growing demand.  We are already seeing an increasing volume of enquiries from organisations seeking our support in placing Interim and Fractional executives in their businesses.

If you have an appetite for these roles, in the first instance please send us your CV.  We will send you an information pack and invite you to attend a series of webinars, hosted by our CEO Richard Triggs, explaining how we can assist you in accessing these opportunities. There is zero cost to candidates to participate in this offering (all fees are paid by the employer).

We look forward to partnering with you to create and maintain the portfolio career you truly deserve.
