Fractional Expertise, Full Impact

At ITSpire Consulting, we understand the financial pressures facing schools, Academy Trusts, and FE Colleges. That’s why we now offer our trusted services through fractional appointments—giving you access to the expertise and knowledge without the cost of a full-time hire.

Whether you need interim leadership, programme and project management or procurement support, our fractional model allows you to scale expertise to your needs and budget. You’ll benefit from the same high-quality guidance and delivery—just in a more flexible, cost-effective format.

Most of the services we offer as a standard day rate option can be broken into a fractional appointment and we can create custom plans from as little as one hour blocks over daily, weekly, monthly, termly or quarterly timescales and for longer term projects we can create pools of time that can be called off as and when needed.

Fractional appointments can be used to fill in support for a range of purposes;

  • Need to support internal teams while they develop their own leadership skills to strengthen succession planning without committing to a full-time interim Director or Head of IT?
  • Need to add technical know-how to manage your outsourced IT service contracts?
  • Need to ensure that IT projects and programmes are well managed and follow best-practice governance without taking on a full time project manager or impacting your teams’ ability to deliver essential projects?
  • Need support to ensure the IT aspects of a new build are kept in sync with the wider programme without taking on a full-time project manager?
  • Need to develop your IT service without taking time away from the internal team or hiring a consultant full time?

These are just some of the use-cases for fractional appointments.  Let’s tailor a solution that works for you. Get in touch to explore how fractional support can help you move forward with confidence.
