Who it’s for

The senior technical lead you haven’t hired yet

For businesses that spend real money on websites, systems and agencies, but don’t have a technical or delivery lead to own it. Senior judgement when it matters, without a full-time hire.

Scoping from £750 · delivery lead from £3,600 a month · builds from £3,500

Let’s talk

When the stakes have grown faster than the team

You’re about to spend tens of thousands on a website, platform or system, and nobody internal can judge the quotes.
Agencies, freelancers and software have piled up, and nobody owns how they fit together.
Leadership can’t see what’s being delivered, what it costs or what’s slipping.
You’d hire a head of digital or delivery, but not full-time, and not yet.

Where I usually start

Scoping & agency selection

A brief agencies can price, proposals compared like for like, and a statement of work with milestone costs and acceptance criteria.

From £750 · systems from £1,500

Fractional delivery lead

Agreed days each month to own agencies, budgets, scope and testing, reporting to leadership.

From £3,600 a month

Operational visibility

Work, capacity and costs in one place, set up in the tools you have, with training so they’re used.

Scoped after a free first call

Websites & eCommerce

Direct builds typically up to around £50,000 where the scope fits. Larger or more complex programmes led with the right agency, across platforms.

From £3,500 · shops from £5,000

Portals & integrations

Trade and customer portals, and your systems connected so nobody copies data by hand.

Scoped first

Process improvement & AI

The repeated tasks that eat the week, simplified or automated where the business case stands up.

Enterprise delivery experience, sized to your business

Inside agencies I owned project and retainer portfolios in six and seven figures, including several concurrent Adobe Commerce sites for one international group, working from product managers to CFO. The same discipline, applied at your scale: clear scope, visible costs and work checked against what was agreed.

Seven case studies

Larger organisations

Teams with their own developers or agencies: I work as an interim or fractional delivery lead, owning suppliers, backlog, budgets and acceptance.
Magento and Adobe Commerce agency retainers: maintenance, bugs and features prioritised on one roadmap, with hours reviewed and additional projects planned around the available budget.
Platform decisions and replatforms: an independent view before the budget is committed.
A second opinion on a programme that’s drifting, written up so leadership can act on it.

How it usually runs

A conversation
Where things stand, what’s at stake, and whether I’m the right fit.
A fixed-price first piece
A scoping brief, a proposal review or a systems diagnostic.
Delivery
Built by me, or led through the right specialists, against agreed criteria.
Ongoing, if useful
A care plan or agreed delivery-lead days each month.

Let’s talk

Support that grows with your business

Start with the work you need now. As the business grows, I can keep the platform knowledge and roadmap with you, building directly where the scope fits and leading agencies when the programme needs a wider team.

Build what you need now

Direct website, shop, portal and integration builds typically up to around £50,000, with the platform, scope and price agreed before work starts.

Websites and eCommerce

Improve as you grow

Care, scoped improvements, integrations and automation, with regular priorities and roadmap reviews sized to the work and budget available.

Support for growing businesses

Lead the wider programme

For larger builds and ongoing agency programmes, fractional technical delivery leadership on your side: the brief, suppliers, retainer, budget, testing and roadmap owned together.

Fractional delivery leadership

Around £50,000 is a guide to the direct-build work I target. Complexity and specialist needs can call for an agency earlier, and delivery support can start at any growth stage. The approach applies across platforms; implementation scope is agreed for each project.
