Fractional Services, Exactly When You Need Them

Flexible, senior-level support without the full-time hire. I plug into your team to lead delivery where it matters most — from course-correcting a project to orchestrating an important business event.

Is fractional right for you?

  • You need leadership a few days a week, not 5/5.
  • There’s a deadline or event that can’t slip.
  • Capacity is stretched and stakeholder confidence needs a lift.

🧭 How we’ll work together

  • Listen & focus: quick discovery, shared goals.
  • Make a plan: lean roadmap, owners, cadence.
  • Deliver: hands-on execution with clear comms.

Project Rescue — FAQs

What happens first?
Short discovery to clarify goals, surface risks, and confirm the fastest path to stabilise the project.
How do you run a rescue?
Typically a 30–60–90 plan:
  • Days 1–30: triage, scope lock, risk burn-down, comms rhythm.
  • Days 31–60: re-baseline schedule, unblock delivery, stakeholder alignment.
  • Days 61–90: land outcomes, handover, coaching to prevent repeat issues.
Do you replace our PM?
I collaborate with your teams. If you have a PM, I augment and unblock; if not, I can step in as interim hands-on leadership.
Where do you work from?
Cork-based with onsite (Ireland) and remote delivery options.
How is pricing handled?
Engagements are scoped to outcomes and complexity. Call for individual pricing.
