Governance support shaped around your requirements

Governance resource requirements are rarely one-size-fits-all. Some organisations need a few additional hours each month. Others require support through a busy Board cycle, a defined project or an extended period of change.

Block packages

Pre-purchase an agreed number of hours and draw on them as required across eligible governance and company secretarial support.

Best for:
recurring or fluctuating requirements.

Ongoing governance support

Reserve regular capacity from the Virteffic team to provide continuity across Board cycles, governance administration and wider support requirements.

Best for:
consistent support without additional permanent headcount.

Interim & secondment support

Additional experienced resource during absence, recruitment, restructuring, increased workloads or periods of change.

Best for:
temporary capacity gaps and defined periods of cover.

Project support

Dedicated governance expertise for defined projects, reviews, remediation work and governance improvement initiatives.

Best for:
projects requiring additional capacity or specialist experience.

Rather than recruiting additional permanent resource for workloads that may fluctuate, clients can secure experienced support and use their hours across agreed services and priorities.

Clear time reporting provides visibility over how hours are used and helps organisations manage resource and budget over time.

Allocate hours around changing governance priorities.

Greater cost certainty

Agree resource and budget in advance.

Frequently asked questions

Flexible governance resource FAQs

Do we need to commit to a full-time secondee?

No. Support can be structured through block-hour packages, recurring governance resource, project support, interim cover or a more traditional secondment arrangement depending on your requirements.

Can support increase or reduce as our workload changes?

Yes. Flexible resource can be adjusted around changing workloads, Board cycles, projects and organisational priorities, subject to agreed scope and availability.

Can Virteffic work within our existing systems and processes?

Yes. Our professionals regularly work within client governance processes and technology environments, subject to agreed access and security arrangements.

Can more than one Virteffic professional support an engagement?

Yes. Where appropriate, a team-based delivery model can provide continuity, broader expertise and greater flexibility rather than relying on a single individual.

How are block-package hours tracked?
