In most SMEs the executive responsible for IT is not a specialist in it — usually it lands with the Finance Director. We plug that gap with a consultant or virtual IT Director: experienced business people who talk your language and complement your team.
No in-house IT leadership
IT decisions landing with Finance
Growth, acquisition or a move on the horizon
A board that wants an IT plan, not a shopping list
IT Director time is bought on top of your support plan. See the plans →
Not another supplier telling you what to buy. Someone whose job is to understand the business first.
An IT strategy that matches the business plan
Budget and renewal planning you can take to the board
Policies written for your people, not a downloaded template
Supplier and contract review, including ours
Risk register and prioritisation
Project scoping and oversight
Attendance at management or board meetings as needed
Certification and audit planning, so Cyber Essentials and client due diligence are scheduled rather than scrambled
Someone who knows the business asking whether you need the thing, before asking which one to buy.
Renewals, refresh cycles and headcount mapped out, so nothing lands as a surprise capital request.
We will tell you when the answer is to keep what you have, or to use someone other than us.
That is usually the moment this service pays for itself. Let us talk about what it would look like.
