Leadership first. Technology second.
For over 20 years, we’ve provided IT leadership, management and support to small businesses across the UK.
We help small business owners utilise IT as an intelligent, dynamic resource that connects seamlessly into their business, turbo-charges its operations and strengthens its value proposition.
Our 3-Tier Fractional Resourcing™ system provides each of our customers with a virtual IT department comprising a high-calibre IT director in charge of strategy, an experienced IT manager in charge of operations, and a small pool of technicians who handle support issues. Our customers get the full power of a properly resourced IT department - at a fraction of the cost.
We know that unless IT teams are well managed by experienced leaders, they tend to become ineffectual, expensive and fail to integrate new technologies. This leaves businesses at a major disadvantage against competitors who have IT leaders that are able to navigate the technology landscape successfully, and drive ever increasing levels of efficiency and innovation. That’s why at Unicorn we believe in leadership first, and technology second.
