On demand access to broadcast and media expertise
CTO as a Service is a flexible technical and operational consultancy service that is available as and when you need it. The service is provided by broadcast and media professionals with a broad range of specialist skills. The Hawk Media Partnership provides consultants ‘on demand’ to tackle operational challenges, technical problems or projects when required.
Examples include:
CTO as a Service is ideal for smaller organisations that don’t have access to in-house technology or operational specialists.
By having access to broadcast and media senior level experts, companies don’t need to pay for costly permanent senior roles and overheads.
In addition, we can offer expertise across different specialties for independent, objective advice.
We can arrange working patterns to suit what’s required. This could range from one day per week or month to being full-time depending on your challenge. Finally, you only pay for what you use.
Much of the value The Hawk Media Partnership brings is its in-depth experience of the broadcast and media market. Our customers benefit from our critical mass of senior engineering and operations professionals.
Our partners have many years’ experience in management roles and therefore we can quickly get up to speed on challenging technical issues. In addition, because we work across different organisations we can share best practice with our customers.
"I worked with Jeremy during a particularly testing period of transition and couldn’t have wanted for a better interim CTO. He is the epitome of calm and stability, providing leadership and direction for the technical teams during a time of extreme volatility. Jeremy brings creative and lateral thinking to the table, offering technology solutions that might not be obvious at first look. He hits the ground running so it was very quickly a no brainer to brief him and leave him to it, knowing the objectives and the teams were in such safe and organised hands. On a personal note, the solid and unconditional support he gave me as interim CEO was, quite frankly, invaluable during that time and I will have no hesitation in picking up the phone again. I just hope he’ll be available!"

It’s a troubling fact that cyber-attacks are growing more sophisticated every day. This begs the question, how secure are broadcasters and their vendors?
This article discusses how a Hawk Red Team Review can you stay one step ahead of cyber-attackers.
In January 2022 the World Teleport Association published their paper on best practice in control room design and operation. Titled ‘Build a Better NOC’, the report explores best practices for strengthening and improving one of the most critical elements of operational and customer support, the Network Operations Center (NOC).
The report was researched and written by Angus Blackwood. In this exclusive World Teleport Association webinar, Angus can be heard speaking about the research findings.
