Technical Leadership Advisor & Fractional CTO

Strategic guidance and direct coaching for founders, seasoned leaders, and emerging managers who want to lead with clarity and deliver with confidence.
What I Do
I help technology leaders face the hard problems:
- Teams that do not deliver
- Managers who are not really managing
- Founders who cannot scale themselves
- VPs lost in process, struggling to drive impact
Whether you are a first-time manager, an experienced CTO, or a founder caught in a loop, I help you gain clarity, build leadership capacity, and create change that sticks.
This is not about frameworks. It is about fixing what is broken.
Who I Work With
- Founders without technical cofounders, looking for strategic guidance, not code
- Engineering Managers or VPs navigating new roles and high pressure
- CTOs in need of a sounding board, a challenger, and a trusted partner
- Product and design leaders who struggle to collaborate effectively with engineering
- Teams in transition: growing, fragmenting, or quietly failing
How I Can Help
Fractional CTO
Senior technical leadership without a full-time hire.
I step in to:

- Bridge gaps between engineering, product, and executive leadership
Leadership Coaching
Targeted 1:1 coaching for emerging and experienced leaders.

- Strengthen communication, trust, and leadership presence
- Transition from individual contributor to confident leader
- Think strategically, and act with intent
Organisation & Delivery Health Checks
Candid, focused audits with actionable outcomes.
I help uncover:
- Where delivery is breaking down
- Why alignment is missing
- How to fix the system, not just the symptoms
Why Work With Me
- I have built teams, repaired broken ones, and supported leaders through transition
- I bring systems thinking, direct feedback, and hard-earned pattern recognition
- I prioritise delivery over appearances, structure over noise
- You will not receive platitudes, only clear insight and measurable progress
This is not consulting theatre or generic coaching.
It is embedded leadership support from someone who has been in the seat and still takes it seriously.
Engagement Options
