Advisory
Executive security leadership, on the terms your board needs.
Flexible mandates tailored to where your organisation sits on its security and transformation journey — from independent board challenge to hands-on programme delivery.
Engagement models
Three ways to work together.
Each engagement is shaped around your risk appetite, regulatory exposure, and the maturity of your security function.
Board & NED Advisory
Independent challenge and assurance on cyber risk, technology strategy, and transformation — translating technical exposure into board-level decisions and confidence.
Interim & Fractional Executive
Hands-on CISO, CIO, or CTO leadership to stand up, mature, or rescue security, technology, and resilience programmes — with measurable outcomes from day one.
Transformation Programmes
End-to-end delivery of complex change — operating-model redesign, M&A integration, and technology modernisation in regulated estates.
What's delivered
Outcomes, not activity.
Engagements are anchored to enterprise outcomes the board can recognise and the regulator can trust.

Deep experience in highly regulated, mission-critical environments.
C-suite engagement models
Executive leadership, on the terms your board needs.
Interim, fractional or advisory — each model brings 25+ years of C-suite technology and security leadership into your organisation at the pace the situation demands.
Interim CISO
Full-authority security leadership through transition, incident recovery or regulatory scrutiny — stabilise, remediate, hand over stronger. DORA, NIS2 and ISO 27001 delivery included.
Fractional CIO
Board-level technology direction without the full-time cost: operating model, investment governance, transformation oversight and vendor leverage — typically 2–3 days a week.
Interim / Fractional CTO
Engineering and architecture leadership for scale-ups and regulated enterprises: platform strategy, AI adoption with governance, delivery discipline and technical due diligence.
Board Cyber Advisor
Independent counsel to boards, audit and risk committees: cyber risk appetite, breach readiness, regulator engagement and challenge of executive assurance.
Programme Rescue
Security and technology programmes that are red and getting redder: rapid diagnostic, replan, and delivery leadership until the programme is demonstrably green.
Non-Executive Director
NED and committee roles for organisations that need deep cyber, AI-governance and technology-risk expertise in the boardroom itself.
