From a young age Chris was always interested in technology.
Whilst at college he started selling desktop computer memory upgrades working out of his fathers conservatory.
At 17 he started as a Database Analyst at Cable & Wireless Global Networks;
progressing through the ranks to Planning & Information Systems Executive. It was during this role
that he worked on a planning system that would manage staff resource available for the
submarine services department, giving engineers their jobs on their mobiles.
This was an ambitious project as at the time,
there were doubts that everyone would have a mobile phone or at least want to use it for anything other than phone calls!
After the telecoms & Internet bubble burst Chris moved North and into a role at The IT Group as Technical Co-ordinator. This role was
an opportunity to gain more IT Strategy experience working with their main customer Masterfoods. He was promoted to Data & Systems Manager
and developed a breakthrough online concept for Customer Relationship Management used to profile 6.2 million consumers.
With the spread of knowledge & skill sets it was a natural step to run his own business.
