Services / Technology leadership

Fractional, interim, and full-time technology leadership

Senior technology leadership for when an organization needs decisions actually made and a program actually owned, not just advised on.

“Joy ran Wildcat’s technology function with real autonomy, and that’s exactly what I wanted (and needed) from her. I could trust her to solve an issue by applying a strong balance of logic and ingenuity. She understood our business (not just our systems), our Investment team’s goals and needs, our tools, how we monitored our portfolio companies, and the security and enterprise risk questions specific to a venture firm. She formed our IT Steering Committee which guided our decisions around structural and thoughtful governance. Budget wasn’t a constraint; yet she was mindful to assure resources were responsibly allocated, and her vendor decisions showed the same judgment. Joy exemplifies the difference between someone who runs technology and someone who actually owns it.”

— Brett Teele, CFO & Partner, Unusual Ventures (former CFO & Operating Partner, Wildcat Venture Partners)

What the engagement covers

Part-time and ongoing, interim through a transition, or full-time for a defined stretch. Budget ownership, vendor strategy and contract negotiation, building the team, and being a real partner to your executives and board.

Who it's for

Good fit if you're between technology leaders and need the seat filled now, scaling past the point where the function can be someone's second job, navigating a transition that needs a full-time owner for a fixed stretch, or want a credible technology voice in front of your board without committing to a permanent hire yet.

Delivery ranges from a few days a month on retainer to full-time for the length of a defined engagement, scoped and contracted through Knox Technology Advisors. The term is set upfront, not open-ended.

Typical shape: fractional at 3–8 days per month, 3-month minimum, monthly retainer scoped on the intro call; full-time interim engagements scoped and quoted by term.


Is this the right fit?

The first call is 30 minutes and costs nothing. If this isn't the right fit, you'll hear that on the call, which happens more often than you might expect.
