Fractional CTO support in Sheffield, delivered by Richard J. Keenlyside - a senior technology operator with three decades of board-level leadership across UK and international businesses. Sheffield combines the UK's largest advanced manufacturing and materials cluster with two major universities, a growing digital and creative sector, and a substantial healthcare and public sector technology footprint - making it the natural anchor for South Yorkshire fractional technology leadership.
On-site days in Sheffield city centre or surrounding industrial and business sites by arrangement, combined with weekly remote cadence. Easily combined with Doncaster or Nottingham into a broader Midlands and Yorkshire visit.
Travel and on-site: Direct Avanti or East Midlands Railway service from London St Pancras (~2h10). Sheffield is the natural anchor for South Yorkshire clients, combining well with Doncaster or Leeds.
Advanced manufacturing and ERP transformation experience is directly applicable to Sheffield's industrial base - engagements at MAN Trucks and Webasto Group involved engineering-led manufacturing environments with the same operational technology challenges as the South Yorkshire steel and advanced materials sector.
SaaS, platform and product-led companies that need technical leadership but don't yet warrant a full-time CTO - particularly during scale-up phases or pre/post-acquisition.
