Advisor

A CIO & CISO in your corner.

Senior guidance alongside your existing IT leader — validating decisions, de-risking the roadmap, and answering the hard questions, without stepping on anyone's toes.

From A$2,000 / month

Who it's for

For teams with a capable IT lead — and no one above them.

You've got people who keep things running — maybe an IT manager growing into the role. What you don't have is someone who has already sat in the CIO or CISO chair to check the big calls before you commit to them.

The Advisor gives your existing leader a senior sounding board — for roadmap direction, a security gut-check, a vendor decision, or simply "what do others do here?" From a five-minute second opinion to shaping the year ahead.

It's support, not a takeover. We back your team and make them look good — no overlap, no politics.

Who you work with

Led by people who've held the seat.

ICG is led by senior technology executives with 15+ years in leadership roles at major global companies, with deep experience across infrastructure, cloud, software and security. That experience translates directly into the vCIO, vCISO and CTO-level guidance we bring to clients today: owning the roadmaps, budgets and security decisions you're weighing now, with the trust of enterprises across Asia Pacific.

Behind our executives sits a vetted regional network — specialists, delivery partners and fellow CxOs across Australia and Asia Pacific. When an engagement needs hands rather than direction, or a specific expert, we mobilise the right capability, scoped to the work — so you get senior leadership and delivery without sourcing and managing each vendor yourself.
