A direct path to senior leadership.

Tessara connects Swiss companies with verified fractional leaders directly, without an agency in the middle and without a recurring cut of the mandate.

Why Tessara

Senior leadership shouldn't require a search firm.

Companies often need experienced leadership for a defined problem, not a full-time hire and not a multi-month search process. Fractional leaders can fill that gap, but finding one is usually slow: personal networks, agencies, or informal referrals.

Tessara makes that process self-service: verified profiles, a direct mutual-match process, and one transparent fee, so companies and leaders can find each other on their own terms.

Principles

What we optimise for.

Self-service

You search, request and decide, with no account manager mediating the conversation.

Quality over quantity

Every profile is verified before it's visible. A smaller, trustworthy directory beats a large, unverified one.

Problem before title

Companies come with a problem to solve, not a job description to fill. Matching starts from the situation.

A direct relationship

Once you unlock a match, the relationship is between you and the leader. Tessara steps back.

See it in practice.
