IT Leadership
Senior IT direction, without the full-time hire.
A business of twenty or fifty people needs IT decisions made at director level several times a year. It rarely needs a director five days a week.
That gap is where most IT money gets wasted — not on bad technology, but on nobody senior deciding what the technology is for.
What this looks like in practice
- Someone who can tell you whether your IT provider is doing a good job, because they've run one
- A plan for the next three years, so you stop buying reactively
- A person to sit opposite a supplier when the renewal comes round
- Projects that finish
- Someone your IT people can ask for a decision
The services

Where your IT should be in three years, what it costs to get there, and in what order.

Why an outsider
I've run IT companies. I know how they price, where the margin sits, what's genuinely difficult and what's being made to sound difficult.
When a proposal or a renewal lands on your desk, you're reading it as a customer. I read it as someone who used to write them.
Tell me what's going wrong.
No charge for the first conversation, and no obligation afterwards.
