## About this task

This technology consulting firm for private equity (201–500 employees) is looking for a director Fractional CMO for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Writes the brief, shortlists suppliers and runs the pitch.

A fresh pair of experienced eyes is needed, and the result is a document or file the team can use straight away. It is a consulting firm, so client deadlines set the pace and handover notes are expected.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United States works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call.

## What you deliver

- Select a performance agency from five candidates using a written scorecard and reference calls.

- One round of edits after the company's review is included

- A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

## How the work runs

- Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared

- Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback

- Last day: final version and handover note

**Duration:** 2 to 3 weeks. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.

## Tools

Notion Excel

## Who fits

- 10-15 years of hands-on work as a Fractional CMO, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Has worked with a distributed team across time zones

- Experience in a similar industry

## Not included

- Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately

- Managing other contractors or employees

- On-call availability outside the agreed window

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
