They brief us long before vacancies appear online, so we maintain an active shortlist of forward-thinking technology leaders ready to step in.

What our clients typically ask for

Hybrid-estate expertise—Azure or AWS tenancy design, resilient campus networking, Wi-Fi optimisation and secure remote-access solutions for global teams

Application portfolio insight: Autodesk/Bentley suites, Adobe CC, Deltek Ajera or ERP, CDE platforms (BIM 360, Asite, Aconex) and identity governance across them all

Security & compliance leadership—ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, MFA roll-out, incident response playbooks and user-awareness programmes

DevOps / automation mindset—PowerShell, Terraform or scripting that removes friction from device provisioning, patching and licence management

People-first communication—translating roadmap decisions into plain language for directors while inspiring help-desk teams to deliver white-glove support
