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.

    CIO, Shop Direct

    Steve Halliday

    CIO, Solihull Borough Council

    CIOs in local authorities have arguably had to do more with less over the past five years. Halliday, with an annual budget of about £11m, though, has introduced a full bring-your-own-device strategy, combined with efficiency and procurement savings. Savings have been driven from, for example, implementing open-source web content management and putting applications and data in the cloud.
