Computing is all about the IT leader - whether that's the CIO, CTO, IT director, chief architect or any one of dozens of other titles. Having spoken to hundreds of IT leaders over the last 12 months and beyond, we feel well qualified to produce the definitive rankings for the top 100 IT leaders in the UK.

To produce this list we took into account factors like size of organisation, size of department, annual budget, duration in role and level of transformation achieved. Then, in consultation with industry experts, we undertook the incredibly challenging task of producing the final list - a task which became ever trickier the closer to the top we got.

Do you feel that you should be on this list? Should you be placed higher? Then contact the editorial team, we'll arrange an interview and next year, it could be you sitting at the top.

    Ian Patterson

    CTO, DVLA

    Patterson was seconded from Government Digital Service to lead DVLA's IT digital transformation, and after tremendous success he has been promoted to the Cabinet Office. During his time at DVLA, Patterson completely changed the way the department dealt with Oracle, shifting away from relying on a systems integrator and dealing directly with the vendor to reduce its licence footprint. DVLA was also then able to use non-Oracle products such as MongoDB on an Oracle cloud if it wanted to.
