How to Manage a Small Law Firm is hiring a Small Business Advisor/Fractional CEO

About the Role

What You'll Do

Act as the operational leader for up to 30 small law firm clients, serving in a fractional COO capacity. You'll meet with each client multiple times per month, conducting in-depth reviews of financial performance, operational workflows, and team dynamics. Your role is to uncover inefficiencies, challenge assumptions, and guide owners toward decisions grounded in facts rather than emotion.

You’ll translate financial insights into practical action plans, build systems that enforce accountability, and ensure clients follow through on commitments. Preparation is key—spend time independently reviewing client data before each meeting to deliver targeted, high-impact guidance. Collaborate with fellow advisors to refine strategies and maintain alignment across the team.

Through consistent engagement, help business owners gain clarity, confront difficult truths, and build the courage to execute necessary changes. Your influence will extend beyond analysis—you’ll be responsible for driving real-world results.

Requirements

  • Demonstrate strong emotional intelligence and the ability to navigate sensitive conversations with care and confidence
  • Bring deep experience in business operations, financial analysis, and organizational structure
  • Interpret financial statements and clearly explain how operational flaws affect profitability
  • Identify execution gaps and offer multiple viable paths forward
  • Challenge client narratives that lack factual support, without taking resistance personally
  • Take full ownership of outcomes—explanation without execution yields no progress
  • Communicate clearly, solve problems creatively, and thrive in uncertain, fast-moving environments
  • Work independently from a home office, managing a flexible schedule with discipline
  • Be ready to dive into details without delegation and adapt quickly when priorities shift
  • Maintain professionalism even when children or family needs interrupt your day

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance (75% covered for employee and family)
  • Unlimited paid time off
  • Short-term and long-term disability coverage
  • Life insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Remote work with flexibility to balance professional and personal responsibilities
  • Regular training and professional development through team meetings
  • Meaningful impact on small businesses navigating growth challenges

Compensation

Base salary of $110,000, with performance incentives structured to help reach $182,000 annually.

Work Environment

This is a fully remote role open to candidates in AZ, CO, FL, GA, IL, MD, MI, NC, NJ, NY, PA, TX, VA, and WA. The company supports working parents and values adaptability—interruptions from family life are expected and accepted. The culture emphasizes personal responsibility, progress over perfection, humor under pressure, and zero tolerance for toxic behavior. Diversity and inclusion are non-negotiable, with a firm commitment to equity across race, religion, national origin, and sexual orientation.
