Fractional IT Director

Remote | 6 – 12 Month Contract

Is this the Fractional IT Director role for you?

Creideas are partnered with a leading UK charity as they look to add a Fractional IT Director to the team on an initial 6 month contract, with a view to extend to 12 months and beyond.

This is an exciting time for the organisation following large investments in their digital functions and a large transformation project that was recently completed. You will bridge operational IT management and strategic transformation, ensure they are getting value for money, act as an advisor for a programme they’re looking to implement, whilst also overseeing BAU within IT.

This is a fractional/part-time position, with an expectation to work remotely 2 days per week. Occasionally, you may be required to travel to their Central London office to attend board meetings, but this won’t be a common occurrence.

What will you do as a Fractional IT Director?

• Work closely with the Senior Leadership Group, Target Operating Model Programme teams, finance, people, operations, HR and external technology partners, ensuring that technology is treated as an organisational enabler
• Develop a clear, prioritised and affordable roadmap
• Act as the principal adviser to the SLG on IT strategy, technology risk, cyber security, systems investment, supplier performance and digital transformation
• Translate strategic priorities and TOM design decisions into practical technology requirements
• Develop practical principles and guardrails for responsible use of AI, automation and emerging technologies
• Maintain oversight of core IT infrastructure, devices, identity and access management
• Assess how they can use digital tools, data and appropriate AI-enabled solutions to improve IT and day to day operations

What skills do you need as a Fractional IT Director?

• Experience within the NFP or education industries would be useful but not essential
• Significant senior IT, digital, technology transformation or operational leadership experience
• Balancing technology strategy with hands-on operational oversight of IT service delivery
• Developing technology or digital roadmaps that are clearly linked to organisational strategy, operating model change and business priorities
• Ability to translate technical issues into clear, practical advice for non-technical colleagues
• Experience of Microsoft 365, CRM, finance, HR, learning, fundraising (desirable)
• Knowledge of responsible AI adoption, automation and digital-skills development (desirable)
