WHAT VEEP IS

An invite-only network of operating partners ready to own the work that can't wait. Founders and CEOs hire us to solve their biggest challenges across finance, GTM, operations, product, people, fundraising, and strategy.

Built for companies with real revenue and growing complexity, before the full-time executive hire makes sense.

The moment you're in

Your business is too important for ownerless work.

Critical work with no clear owner.

A fundraise, GTM reset, operating issue, margin problem, or leadership gap keeps coming back to the founder. The team is busy, but the priority is still stuck.

The hire can come later. The work cannot.

A full-time executive may be the right answer eventually. The search takes months, the role may still be undefined, and the business needs movement now.

The founder is still in the middle.

Sales decisions, finance questions, operational escalations, people issues, and strategic initiatives keep landing on the CEO's desk.

More advice is not enough.

You don't need another deck or a stack of candidate profiles. You need someone senior to step in, take responsibility, and move the work.

Instead of
Retained search

Months to hire. Permanent commitment. Wrong-hire risk lands on you.

Consulting firms

Recommendations without ownership. The work still lands back on your team.

Marketplaces and freelancers

Profiles to browse. Variable quality. More decisions and oversight for the founder.

What we do

Built for the job to be done.

Tell us what's in the way, not moving, or unfortunately coming back to you to solve. We shape the work and define the outcomes, recommend the right level of support (Advisory, Sprint, Operator, or Pod), and match operators to the job.

When the work lands or the permanent hire arrives, we hand off with results and documentation, not ongoing dependency.

The Veep model
Start with the work, not the title

We diagnose the priority, urgency, and outcome before deciding whether the answer is advisory, a sprint, an operator, a pod, or recurring operating capacity.

Senior only

Every operator is a vetted senior leader — former founders, CFOs, COOs, CROs, CMOs, CTOs, as well as product and people leaders.

Priced to scope

Advisory, Sprint, Operator, or Pod structured around the work and outcomes.

Guaranteed fit

30 days to prove it. If the operator is not right, we swap them or you walk.

Operator spotlight

Operators who've held the seat and delivered.

Every Veep operator has held the role they're deployed into, at a comparable-stage company, with outcomes we can reference. No juniors, no generalists, no career consultants.

B2B SAAS · FINANCE OPERATING PARTNER

Trigger. CEO was preparing for a first institutional round without a financial model, investor materials, or fundraising experience.

Stabilize the operational gaps transactions create.

Transactions create volatility before close, after close, and during integration. Leadership seats open. The plan is clear, but the company often lacks the senior capacity to own the work. Veep gives transaction-active firms a retained roster of vetted operators, ready to support diligence, transition, integration, value creation, and interim leadership needs across the portfolio.

Before you book

The questions founders ask on the first call.

Is this right for me?

You are a founder, CEO, owner-operator, or investor-backed leader with critical work lacking senior ownership: a fundraise, GTM reset, margin issue, operations rebuild, leadership gap, recurring workflow, or strategic initiative.

How much does it cost?

Advisory starts at $3k/month. Sprints start at $25k. Operators start at $15k/month. Pods start at $30k/month. The right structure depends on the work, urgency, and level of ownership required.

How fast does it actually move?

Shortlist in 72 hours. Operator deployed in under 10 days. Urgent coverage can move faster when the situation requires it.

Can I trust the operator?

Every operator is vetted and senior. Veep operators are former founders, CFOs, COOs, CROs, CMOs, CTOs, as well as product and people leaders who've owned real outcomes before.

What if it is not a fit?

Every engagement carries a 30-day fit guarantee. If the operator isn't right, we swap them or you walk — no fee owed for the remaining term.

What happens after the intro call?

We run a 30-minute call with a Veep founder to clarify the work, urgency, and outcome. Within 72 hours we recommend the structure and shortlist the operator.

MINI FAQ

Straight answers.

What is a Veep operator?+

A Veep operator is a vetted senior operator who steps into your business to own critical work before a full-time executive hire makes sense. Depending on the need, that operator may be a CFO, COO, CRO, CMO, CTO, product leader, people leader, chief of staff, or functional expert.

How fast can a Veep operator start?+

Shortlist in 72 hours. Operator deployed in under 10 days. Urgent interim or leadership-gap coverage can move faster when needed.

How much does Veep cost?+

Advisory starts at $3k/month. Sprints start at $25k. Operators start at $15k/month. Pods start at $30k/month. Every engagement is scoped to the work.

How is Veep different from a consulting firm?+

A consultant recommends. A Veep operator owns. Our operators step into the work, set the rhythm, build the materials, make decisions with the team, and move the priority forward.

How is Veep different from executive search?+

Search is for permanent hiring. Veep is for critical work that needs senior ownership before the full-time hire makes sense. The work moves now, while the permanent hiring decision stays open.

Who is Veep for?+

Veep is built for founder-led, owner-led, and investor-backed companies with real revenue, real teams, and growing complexity. Most clients are doing $5M–$150M in revenue, though the right fit depends more on the work than the exact company size.

What if it is not a fit?+

Every engagement carries a 30-day fit guarantee. If the operator is not right, we swap them or you walk with no fee owed for the remaining term.

Where does Veep operate?+

Veep operators work remotely across North America and Europe, with on-site availability for key moments such as board meetings, offsites, integration weeks, and major operating milestones.
