  Rab capital

  Nov 2009 - Apr 2013

  In this role I was responsible for the design and implementation of the RAB Capital IT infrastructure for both the London and Hong Kong office, running the project to upgrade the branch office onsite. With a hardware refresh iminient the decision was taken to migrate to a hosted infrastructure where I headed up the project on the technical side, with a detailed vendor selection process to ensure that the best fit solution was identified. I then worked closely with the hosting technical team for setup and migration of all systems to the hybrid private/public cloud. Show less
