I am highly experienced in IT Support and web development and have encountered many business systems in use today. I have been required to diagnose and impact assess system outages. I am familiar with server management, virtualisation technologies and have considerable experience with VMWare and Citrix XenApps, having configured thin client builds on various embedded operating systems for a 1200 seat contact centre.
I have a sound knowledge of incident and change management from appraisal through to closure and have been required to procure and convey details of these in a timely and accurate manner to multiple parties via various channels.
I strive for continual improvement and have used my abilities to deliver solutions that provide increased efficiency, accuracy, throughput and ultimately cost savings. Having spent my career in customer and stakeholder facing roles, I have developed excellent communication skills and can easily adapt technical language for a given audience.
