IT Support
After ten enjoyable years in KMi I retired at the end of September 2011.
The desktop support part of my role in KMi was taken over by Central IT; however that has only been a part of my day to day work.
I have been your first port of call if you had a problem with your PC,Network,Printer,or anything else that I helped you with before! My background is in electronic design and data transmission, long before the advent of the PC or Bill Gates! I am an IEng,GCGI,MIET,MCP & ECDL. I have experience in Manufacturing, Purchasing, PAYE,VAT,Company Accounting,Help Desk,PC & Server Configuration. In my spare time I research my family history.
The KMi has been a great place to end my career of 50 years. May it continue to do great research.
