  Bradford and Sons Ltd

  Aug 1992 - now

  After completing a BTEC National Diploma in Computer Studies at Yeovil College and obtaining distinctions in programming, I started working on the Helpdesk at Bradfords. I built knowledge on programming in COBOL and supporting end users on a Data General AOS/VS system. The company had approx. 20 sites that were supported from the Head Office at Yeovil. I increased my knowledge of Windows systems, Data General AOS/VS and UNIX systems by training courses and hands on experience. Email and PC's were introduced to end users during 1996/7 and then thin-client devices rolled out across most locations. A new bespoke system was introduced during 1997 running on DEC\Compaq Alpha servers with SAN storage (EVA 3000). The number of locations increased over the years as did the number of end users to support. Show less
