About Us

We like to think we do a good job looking after our customers’ needs and supporting their businesses. There are many IT providers in the market who are providing poor service, so we are proud to be one of the good ones. We are looking for a strong addition to the team who can help us to grow whilst we continue to maintain this level of care.

Having started up in November 2019 during the height of the pandemic when many businesses we're struggling, we buckled down, worked hard and just got on with it. We learned how to grow during a difficult time when just getting an appointment to see someone, was hard enough. Now, we are thriving, with a team of 8, soon to be 10.

We are very friendly and open team, honesty and fairness is at the heart of everything we do. Unlike many IT providers, we are not just trying to empty the pockets of our customers. Our approach is to keep our customers happy, all of the time, not just when they first sign-up. Over 5 years we have only lost 3 clients which we believe is testament to our service level.

We want our team to stay with us for the long-term too, so we try to be flexible as an employer. This role is office-based, however, everything we do, all of the systems we use, are all 100% cloud-based. We have been careful since day one to ensure this so that our team can work from anywhere, anytime. Should you need to work from home some days, whether it's a doctors appointment or your child's school sports day, just give us a heads up.

Our company is part of a group, within our premises there is also a managed print provider, a software firm and a document management provider. Across the group there are around 50 staff. We all share communal areas and enjoy a good chin-wag. We also have group-wide social events throughout the year.
