Senior ICT expertise, sized to fit

Budgets are under pressure, and a full-time hire isn’t always the right answer, or even a possible one. A fractional appointment gives you access to experienced ICT leadership and delivery without the commitment or cost of a permanent role.

Most of the services we offer at a day rate can also be provided fractionally. We can build something around your needs in blocks of as little as an hour, across daily, weekly, monthly, termly or quarterly arrangements. For longer pieces of work, we can set up a pool of time that you draw on as and when you need it.

A fractional appointment can help you:

  • support an internal team as they develop their own leadership, strengthening succession planning without committing to a full-time Head or Director of ICT
  • add technical know-how to oversee an outsourced ICT contract
  • keep projects and programmes well governed without hiring a dedicated project manager or pulling your team off essential work
  • make sure the ICT elements of a new build stay aligned with the wider programme
  • develop your ICT service without taking your internal team away from day-to-day delivery

These are just some of the possibilities. Tell us what you’re trying to achieve, and we’ll shape an arrangement that fits. We specialise in further education and multi-academy trusts, but fractional support works just as well for other organisations facing the same pressures.
