Scale and growth
Leadership that grows with the business.
If your business is scaling and you need experienced leadership to align technology, operations and investment, that is the work we do.
The arithmetic
Hiring a full-time CIO or CISO is a serious investment. Base salary alone frequently runs past £150,000, before bonus, benefits, employer costs and the months spent finding the right person.
Plenty of growing organisations do not need that much resource. They still need someone who can guide strategy, take ownership and lead the risk decisions. That is the gap the fractional model fills.
You get the outcomes, the leadership and the assurance. You do not get the full-time commitment.
Where we have done this
Fractional leadership delivered across a range of business-critical situations.
Design practice
After a senior technology leader left a growing practice, we stepped in as embedded CTO: stabilising day-to-day operations, restarting long-delayed initiatives and delivering a board-approved technology roadmap tied to the commercial plan.
Engineering and environmental consultancy
We led the redefinition of IT strategy and governance for a national consultancy, repositioning the internal team as a strategic partner to the business. Service delivery improved, suppliers became accountable, and the infrastructure could support the growth plan.
Investment manager, close to £1bn under management
A firm of this size needs a steady hand on assurance, governance and regulatory compliance. We provide CTO and CISO services across the UK and Europe from a compliance perspective, alongside day-to-day IT operations.
City law firm
Brought in to define a three-year technology and innovation strategy, then retained to lead its delivery.
