  Technical Team Leader - Cloud Services

  I began my Brennan experience on the Service Desk then moved through the business to Managed Services. From Managed Services i transitioned into a role that looked after the internal systems, monitoring systems for the whole business and the infrastructure-as-a-service platform. As the team became exclusively focused on Cloud my role changed from System Engineer to Senior Systems Engineer and now I am the Technical Team Leader and second in charge of the department. The nature of Cloud services ensures we maintain our strong relationship with all other parts of the business including Managed Services, Projects and Brennan Voice and Data. Show less
