Senior technology leadership for established Australian businesses — strategy, systems, security, AI adoption and vendor oversight, without a full-time CTO salary.
Why SMEs Choose a Fractional CTO
You don’t need a full-time CTO to make smart technology decisions — you need senior experience you can call on. Hiring a full-time CTO in Australia costs between $250,000 and $420,000 before equity and on-costs. A fractional CTO gives established businesses the strategy, oversight and accountability to make technology work for the business, at a fraction of that cost.
Our founder brings 27 years of hands-on experience across enterprise, government, private equity-backed and SME technology — providing senior leadership with genuine independence.
