    • University College London

      Sept 2015 - Sept 2019
      IT Project Manager

      The University College London (UCL) was founded in 1826 as a public research university. Over the past 20 years, UCL has grown through mergers including the Institute of Education (IOE) in 2014. As a result of the merger with the IOE, multiple projects were needed to integrate IT systems into a centralised service offering. I was responsible for ensuring the VOIP systems between the IOE and UCL were integrated so that the two disparate telephony networks operate as a single internal network. IOE staff can call UCL staff through an internal extension and vice versa. Show less
