Examples of the kind of work we do and the outcomes we help organisations reach — across education, business, social enterprise and professional services. Executive-level expertise without executive-level overhead.
A growing trust had inherited a patchwork of software contracts and licences as schools joined. A fractional IT director pulled every contract into one view, identified duplicated tools and unused licences, and built a consolidated, trust-wide plan — standardising systems and redirecting back-office savings towards the classroom, while mapping progress against the DfE digital standards.
A profitable but cash-tight SME had reliable bookkeeping but no strategic finance. A fractional CFO introduced rolling cash-flow forecasting, clearer management reporting and margin analysis by product line — giving the owner the confidence and the numbers to make growth and pricing decisions rather than relying on gut feel.
A community interest company was heavily dependent on short-term, restricted grant funding. Fractional leadership helped it diversify income — developing an earned-revenue stream alongside grants, sharpening its costing and pricing, and strengthening the commercial and governance foundations funders look for — building towards greater financial resilience.
A professional-services firm was spending on marketing without a clear strategy or a reliable flow of enquiries. A fractional CMO set the strategy, sharpened the firm's positioning, and brought structure to its digital and content activity — pointing existing spend at the right audiences and tying marketing to pipeline rather than activity for its own sake.
A construction business was seeing margins erode as it took on more work. A fractional operations director reviewed estimating and project delivery, tightened the hand-offs and reporting that were causing rework, and introduced a simple set of project performance indicators — helping leadership see and protect margin while the business scaled.
A primary school wanted assurance that its technology met current expectations. A fractional IT director audited the setup against the DfE digital and cyber standards, closed the gaps on multi-factor authentication, backups and access control, and put clear ownership and an annual review in place for filtering and monitoring — turning an uncertain picture into a documented, defensible position.
The leadership your business needs, exactly when you need it. Let's talk about the outcome you're after and whether fractional support is the right way to reach it.
