Fractional CIO, your part-time IT director

IT strategy and processes need an owner, but a full-time executive costs €5,000–8,000 a month. I join your team part-time, take the technology projects off your desk and free your time for growing the business.

A clear IT roadmap and strategy

We set a plan for which systems to develop to support growth. No technology for technology’s sake — the only focus is ROI and efficiency.

Your personal IT translator and advocate

I speak to developers and IT partners in their own language. I demand quality, watch the budget closely and protect you from overpaying and empty promises.

People-centred change management

New software does not work if people do not use it. I take the team smoothly through digital change, break resistance and turn new processes into habits.

Executive competence at a flexible cost

You get top-level CIO competence for a fraction of a full-time salary, with exactly the workload you need (for example 1–2 days a week). Monthly fee by agreement, no employment taxes.

    We map where IT is holding the business back today and which decisions lie ahead.

  2. 2

    Agreement

    We agree the level (sparring, 1 or 2 days a week), the priorities and the monthly fee. Cancellable every month.

  3. 3

    First month

    IT roadmap, review of partners and contracts, quick wins that free your time immediately.

  4. 4

    Ongoing work

    I run projects and partners and report results in numbers. The workload changes with your needs.

Price: mapping €590 one-off, sparring €490/month, fractional CIO €2,500/month for one day a week or €4,500/month for two days. No employment taxes or VAT are added. A full-time CIO costs more with taxes, and a growing company rarely needs one full-time.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a fractional CIO and IT support?▼

IT support keeps computers and servers running. A fractional CIO is responsible for the boundary between business and technology: strategy, partner selection, contracts, projects and change management.

How much time does a fractional CIO work?▼

Three levels: sparring up to 5 hours a month, 1 day a week or 2 days a week. The workload can change with your projects and every level can be cancelled monthly.

How much does a fractional CIO cost?▼

IT status mapping €590 one-off, sparring €490/month, fractional CIO €2,500/month for one day a week and €4,500/month for two days. No employment taxes, holiday pay or VAT are added.

Does a fractional CIO replace my current IT partners?▼

No. The CIO represents your interests towards partners, demands quality and watches the budget. Partners who perform well stay.

Which companies is a fractional CIO for?▼

Growing companies where the CEO makes IT decisions on the side and a full-time CIO is not yet justified. Typically 20–200 employees. Start with the mapping, so both sides know exactly what the monthly fee covers.
