We connect businesses with proven independent sales and marketing leaders who deliver flexible expertise to unlock growth, transform performance and accelerate value creation.
Our expertise in fractional and independent leadership allows us to source high-calibre marketing and commercial professionals for some of the world’s most dynamic and fastest growing companies. We support a range of roles, including Fractional CMOs, Fractional CROs and independent consultants, ensuring you gain access to seasoned professionals who can deliver immediate impact.
We start with a tailored diagnostic of your sales and marketing performance. This provides commercial clarity, identifies growth levers, and ensures any engagement is built on evidence, not assumption.
Working with your leadership team, we translate the diagnostic into clear priorities and outcomes. This step clarifies the scope, time commitment, and expertise required from a fractional leader.
We connect you with proven fractional executives who align with your growth objectives. Each consultant is vetted for deep sector experience and the ability to deliver impact from day one.
Your chosen fractional leader integrates quickly into your team, delivering ongoing strategic support. Their involvement can flex up or down as your needs change, ensuring value creation without over-hiring.
Growth Partners is a sister business of tml Partners, who partner exclusively with a highly curated panel of fractional and independent consultants. While tml specialises in executive search and interim management, Growth Partners works with a carefully selected panel of seasoned leaders to provide flexible, part-time expertise. It’s especially valuable for investor-backed and high-growth businesses needing rapid, specialist support.

An interim manager steps in full-time for a defined period to lead, stabilise or transition a function, taking on decision-making authority and accountability. A fractional consultant works part-time over a longer term, providing strategic leadership or expertise without full-time commitment. The interim role is about embedding quickly and driving execution, while the fractional role focuses on sustainable support and oversight
Fractional and independent consultants give businesses immediate access to senior expertise without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire. They provide flexibility to scale support up or down as needs change, often bringing specialist skills that accelerate growth or transformation. With a carefully chosen consultant, companies avoid hiring delays, reduce risk, and gain leaders who can deliver impact from day one — particularly valuable for investor-backed or high-growth organisations.
We apply a rigorous selection process to guarantee access to only the highest-calibre talent. In fact, 95% of applicants do not meet the criteria. Those who do have led marketing and commercial functions for some of the world’s largest and most ambitious businesses, bringing proven expertise and board-level experience.
At tml partners, we connect leading marketing and commercial talent with world-leading companies. Whether you're looking to fill a senior role or find your next career challenge, we're here to help you achieve your ambitions.
We offer a breadth of expertise across a range of services designed to help you build exceptional teams and find your next role. We can support your needs whether you are seeking permanent, interim, or consultancy solutions.
Sharing some positive feedback regarding my recent experience working with two members of the TML Partners team, Ryan Fripps and Hannah Jenns. I initially met with Ryan in person, and he was wonderful to speak with. He immediately put me at ease, made me feel genuinely confident in my skill set, and took the time to understand my background through a very warm and engaging conversation. Recognising a strong potential fit, he then raised my search at a team meeting and promptly connected me with Hannah for a role that she was working on. Ryan later followed up with me to check in on my search just ahead of speaking to Hannah which was a call I appreciated and made me feel like a valuable candidate. Hannah was equally fantastic to work with. She went above and beyond by taking extra care to meet with me on multiple occasions throughout the process. We thoroughly walked through the scope of a role with a client, explored my thoughts on the position, and strategised how I would approach the key challenges. That dedicated preparation time made a world of difference - it directly enabled me to deliver one of the best interviews of my career. Even though I didn't land the job on this occasion, the overall experience was incredibly positive. The seamless referral from Ryan to Hannah really demonstrates my how collaboratively your team operates, and their high level of personal care sets TML Partners apart. I thoroughly enjoyed working with both Ryan and Hannah. They will certainly be top of mind for me for any future opportunities that arise in my career. In this job market, experiences like this are few and far to come by so it means a lot.
Emma at TML was brilliant to work with during my recruitment journey. From the initial discovery call to the point of my placement, and then joining my new organisation, she provided the right level of clarity and insight to support my application. Emma always delivered on any follow ups and gave timely updates throughout the process, ensuring I was well-informed and prepared.
I had a brilliant experience working with Emma throughout the recruitment process. She was a pleasure to deal with, highly knowledgeable, approachable and gave excellent guidance. I felt tml were genuinely invested in my success beyond simply helping me secure an interview. Emma gave me a clear understanding of the role and what to expect at each stage, kept me informed and was always happy to answer any questions. Her support did not stop once I got the role. Emma has checked in to see how things are going, which I have really appreciated. I would happily recommend tml to anyone looking for a professional and supportive recruitment experience.
I had the pleasure of working with Ryan Fabian at TML Partners during my search for a growth marketing role, and I couldn’t recommend him more highly. His deep understanding of client needs, the market, thoughtful guidance, and professional yet approachable style made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. A true partner in every sense and looking forward to starting my new role. Thank you!
Emma at TML Partners has been absolutely fantastic to work with. Her communication was excellent throughout, always clear, responsive, reliable and she consistently followed through on everything she said she would do. She took the time to really explain the role and the company, supported me with preparation (including spending time on presentations) and genuinely wanted me to succeed. What I also really appreciated was Emma checking in after I’d started the role, it showed real care beyond just placing a candidate. A brilliant experience from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emma or TML Partners.
From the get go, Klaidi has been great! He was supportive throughout the interview process, providing insights and feedback along the way. His friendly, professional approach ensured I was well prepared for each round, helping me secure my new position. I would highly recommend him.
"I had an excellent experience as a potential candidate for a new role and can highly recommend working with Emma Calder from tml Partners. She was wonderful throughout the entire process – extremely personable, knowledgeable, with great attention to detail and very professional. She took the time to understand the my needs, always got back to me asap, and supported me well in my thought processes. All the best!"
"My whole experience with tml Partners and specifically Hannah the recruiter for my position was first class. The approach to ensure really clear alignment between what I was looking for and the role was in place from the 1st phone call right through to the end of the process. Hannah kept me up to date throughout the whole process, was a brilliant support both pre and post interviews and a great liaison with my new company. I really appreciated the additional check ins prior to key interview days. Would highly recommend both as a candidate but also as a hiring manager to consider tml Partners."
"My experience with TML Recruitment Agency has always been exceptional across the board, but I specifically would like to single out Khushi Patel. From our first interaction, Khushi demonstrated a level of professionalism and dedication that truly sets her apart in the recruitment industry. In the years since, what continues to impress me most is her deep understanding of the marketing and communications landscape. She takes the time to thoroughly understand experience, specialised skills, and strategic capabilities before suggesting relevant opportunities. Her advice is always on point, practical, and tailored. I highly recommend TML Recruitment Agency, and specifically Khushi Patel, to any marketing and communications professional looking to advance their career.and/or grow their teams."
My experience working with tml partners has been a very positive one. The search consultant was thoroughly researched, very much on top of her client's brief, genuinely interested in motivation - both for the role and longer term career- timely and crystal clear on steps to be taken. She was also open about the client's focus and key considerations. I found that because of her preparation and thought given to candidate's aspirations, trust and rapport were easily established and sustained. This reflected very well on the client and tml partners.
It's been a pleasure working with tml Partners and particularly working with Tara, she's a star! She's very thorough and provides so much guidance, assistance and reassurance which is greatly appreciated during a time of a tough market.
Tara A. at TML Partners has been incredibly dedicated to understanding my career goals. Her emphasis on quality over quantity has not only shaped the way I present myself but has also given me the confidence to excel in my chosen path. Her guidance and expertise have been truly invaluable.
"I had the pleasure of working with Malisha, and it has been a satisfactory experience. From the first conversation, she was very professional and always explained the whole process in detail. She also shared relevant information, recommendations, and knowledge, so I was prepared and confident during the interview. I really appreciate the approach and how Malisha guided me through the process with the company, which helped me get the job offer. I am delighted with her work and would highly recommend her. Thank you so much !!"
I had a fantastic experience working with tml Partners.

"I was fortunate to be recommended to Selina and her team at tml Partners while exploring the next step in my career. From our very first conversation, Selina's approach stood out. She genuinely listened, taking the time to understand my career journey to date and what the ideal senior commercial sales leadership role would look like for me. Selina went beyond surface-level discussions, delving deeply into what drives and motivates me. She offered invaluable coaching on my personal brand and positioning, helping me to clarify and articulate my professional strengths. Together, we not only identified current opportunities but also mapped out a list of target firms that aligned with my aspirations. Thanks to Selina's guidance, persistence, and strategic insight, I secured a meeting with the CMO of a targeted firm I had long admired. That meeting opened the door to a truly exciting opportunity, with the organisation recognising how my skills and experience could contribute significant value during a period of growth and transformation. I am immensely grateful to Selina for her expertise, unwavering support, and genuine care throughout the process – it was seamless and empowering! Selina is not just a market leader in executive search – she is a true partner who consistently goes above and beyond. Thank you, Selina, for giving me the confidence, clarity, and encouragement to pursue my dream role… I'm excited about what lies ahead!"
Have known the excellent Selina @ TML partners for some time now. Always impressed by her attention to detail, responsiveness, humour and "can do" attitude. If only all recruiters were such a pleasure to interact with. Recommended from a candidate experience PoV.
Brilliant team, super supportive and helpful in interview process and general advice. Have worked with Selina and Emma before and both have been brilliant throughout. Would highly recommend working with tml Partners
