Fractional Leadership

What We Bring to the Table

We don't just advise. We roll up our sleeves, map the mess, and help you lead through it.

• Data Strategy

  • Define what data matters, why, and how to use it

  • Align KPIs with business goals

  • Prioritize roadmap, tools, and governance models
    

• Infrastructure & Process Design

  • Support tooling decisions (warehouse, BI, ETLs, etc.)

  • Help define architecture needs, now and future

  • Set up data ownership, lifecycle, and documentation standards
    

• Team Leadership

  • Coach your existing team or help you hire the right people

  • Set roles, expectations, and workflows

  • Step in as interim Head of Data or Data Governance Lead
    

• Budget & Buy-In

  • Build your case for data investment

  • Present to leadership or boards

  • Create budget-conscious strategies that still deliver

How It Works

We can work as:

• Fractional CDO / Head of Data (1–2 days/week or sprint-based)

• Advisory Partner (weekly check-ins, decision support)

• Interim leadership (onboarding, restructuring, parental leave coverage)

Why Choose Fractional?

• Save time and money vs. a full-time exec

• Get strategic clarity and practical execution

• Avoid burnout or mis-hires in your internal team

• Have a third-party perspective to challenge the status quo

• Scale your data function at the pace of your business

Why Clarity Layer?

You’re not hiring a freelancer. You’re partnering with a team.

At Clarity Layer, you get a full bench of specialists — not a single person trying to fake their way through things outside their lane.

• Alexandra brings deep experience in data strategy, governance architecture, and technical advising.

• Paulina runs the engine; turning goals into execution through structured project management and rigorous follow-through.

But we don’t stop at the two of us.

We maintain a trusted network of collaborators: specialists in security, architecture, DevOps, analytics engineering, BI tooling, regulatory law, and more. If something is outside our core skill set, we don’t wing it, we bring in the right expert, for just the amount of time needed.

You get:

• A tailored leadership presence

• Specialists matched to your actual needs

• No bloated hours, no weak spots, no guesswork

It’s like having a full data department on-call but only paying for the brainpower you actually need.
