Your fractional leader embeds with your team — typically 1-3 days per week — providing executive oversight and hands-on direction.
Scale engagement up or down as needed, or transition to a permanent hire when the time is right. We support both paths.
A full-time CTO or CIO can cost $300,000–$400,000 per year in total compensation — before benefits, equity, and overhead. A fractional engagement delivers the same strategic expertise for a fraction of the cost.
Most mid-market companies spend $24,000–$60,000/year for 1-3 days per week of senior IT leadership. That's 80-90% savings vs. a full-time hire.
Let's talk about what kind of fractional IT leadership would make the biggest impact at your company.
