About us header image - three friends

The Fractional Hub is a community for fractional workers and those looking to explore fractional work. We provide training, resources, coaching and consulting for fractional employment.

Our mission

First and foremost, we are champions of fractional work; our aim is to empower people to build a multi-faceted career that fits their lives.

Our story

Back in 2023, the three of us (Michael, Liam and Rachael) were living together in Da Nang, Vietnam. The pandemic had allowed for much more flexible working, and so we were able to travel while still working. Exploring in the mornings and working remotely in the evenings, we daydreamed about how the three of us could work together and keep that flexibility in our lives in the long term.


Two years later, the three of us are 100% remote. Michael, our founder, has been working fractionally as a project and program manager in creative agencies, as well as consulting for companies around the globe. Liam has taken a leap into the freelance world, working for multiple companies as a technical writing consultant, and Rachael is dividing the week between working in-house as a designer as well as freelancing in illustration.

"After creating a personal brand and sharing my journey into the fractional world on LinkedIn, I’ve had countless conversations with others interested in fractional work; be it companies looking for expertise, freelancers wanting new ways of working or employees desiring flexibility and change. 
It was no-brainer to me that we needed to create a space for people to learn and make connections."

Meet the team

Michael Gold

Founder

Michael has spent over a decade managing projects in creative agencies and consulting firms, but traditional work never quite fit. In 2024, he went fractional in search of more flexibility and a better way to work. Now, he leads projects, builds The Fractional Hub, and proves that work should fit around life, not the other way around.

A lifelong traveller, he’s worked from beaches, bustling cities, and questionable airport lounges. When he’s not talking about remote work or fractional careers, he’s watching football (and apologising for supporting Tottenham) or planning his next adventure.

Rachael Horner

Co-founder

Rachael splits her time between in-house design work and freelancing as an illustrator, proving that you don’t have to choose between structure and freedom. She brings creativity and visual storytelling to The Fractional Hub, making sure our brand and community look as good as they feel. When she’s not drawing or designing, she’s probably taking a forest walk, writing a song she'll never share, or dancing around in her studio.
