For firms
Role, project, required expertise, industry experience, budget, and timeline, written the way you'd say it. AI search and candidate sourcing rank the entire network against it in seconds.
Ran two AML remediation programs under a consent order.
Rebuilt KYC onboarding for a $40B regional bank.
Led three SEC and FINRA exams with no findings.
Intelligent matching ranks every verified specialist already on Panther. When a brief is niche, the sourcing CRM goes and finds people who aren't: enriched, contacted, and screened, with a recruiter signing off before anything reaches you.
Two consent-order remediations is the closest analogue in the network to the programme you described. Regulator-facing throughout, and free full-time from next month. The only profile on the shortlist that clears every hard requirement in the brief.
Terms agreed, contract signed, compliance checks on file. However many fractional leaders, consultants, or contractors you run, it settles as one monthly invoice.
For candidates
Upload your experience, then set the expertise you want to be hired for, your availability, and your rate. Minutes, not an application form.
A single adaptive interview goes deep on what you've actually led. It scores your depth and verifies you once, to every firm on the network.
Briefs arrive already filtered to your rate and availability. Accept, sign, and start. Contracts and payouts run automatically each month.
Decades of finance, legal, and compliance experience, hired by the day, the project, or the quarter. Never the headcount.
Build a profile in minutes, upload your experience, and complete one AI-led interview. Panther then brings you fractional and project work matched to your expertise, rate, and availability.
Describe the role, project, required expertise, industry experience, budget, and timeline in plain English. Panther searches the network, screens for fit, and returns a ranked shortlist, typically inside 72 hours.
Fractional CFOs and controllers, general counsel and fund lawyers, compliance and risk leads. Every profile is verified, interviewed, and scored before a firm ever sees it.
