Stepping into senior technology or operational leadership roles on a fractional basis, while developing internal capability to take over.
You have a leadership gap that's holding the business back. Maybe your CTO has outgrown the role, or you've lost a senior leader and can't afford to get the next hire wrong. Maybe you need someone to set direction for a technology or delivery team that's drifting. You need experienced leadership now, but a full-time permanent hire isn't the right answer, either because of cost, timing, or because you're not yet sure what the role needs to look like long-term.
I step into senior leadership roles on a fractional basis, typically a couple of days a week. I provide the direction, decision-making, and credibility that the role demands while working alongside your existing team. Critically, I'm always building towards my own departure. I develop the internal capability to take over, mentor emerging leaders, and create the structures that mean the business doesn't need me permanently.
The wrong leadership hire costs you a year. The right fractional leader gives you experienced direction from day one, while building the internal capability so you won't need me long-term. If you have a leadership gap that's holding the business back and you need someone who can step in without a six-month learning curve, let's have a conversation.
Currently being engaged by a tech consultancy to cover CTO responsibilities while mentoring their CTO-in-waiting to step up into the role. The engagement includes setting technical direction, improving delivery standards, and progressively handing over leadership as the internal candidate builds confidence and capability.
Everything starts with a conversation. No pitch, no pressure, no obligation. If I can help, I'll tell you. If I can't, I'll tell you that too.
