Board-Ready Credentials
Proof a search firm can put in front of its client
Most fractional profiles are startup-scale. This one survives enterprise and PE scrutiny — every claim is a verifiable, board-level track record, not a pitch.

Non-Executive Director
A board-ready technology NED who can challenge and govern AI, cyber, platform and transformation risk — and translate it out of the jargon so the rest of the board can hold management to account.
Interim CTO / CIO
Senior technology leadership to cover a gap, lead a transformation or stabilise delivery — deployed within two weeks, with the enterprise and PE scale most fractional profiles can't evidence.
Board & Transformation Advisory
Advisory NED and board-advisor mandates: AI governance, technology due diligence, operating-model redesign and carve-out execution — proven across €8B+ of platform revenue, not theorised.
Operator-Proven at Scale
What Operating It Actually Looks Like
AI ambition is easy to declare. The proof is in the operating layer underneath it — the workforce redesigns, platform migrations, carve-outs and cost take-outs I have actually delivered at scale.
