With over 25 years working in technical aspects of the broadcast industry I initially worked with early production based IT systems moving onto business critical IT backend broadcast platforms and later transmission systems. Across all these platforms I was involved in the design, deployment and support of systems acting both as a project/support engineer and then later as a project/support manager for some of the largest projects within the industry. More recently I have been running my own consultancy firm involved in a number of large broadcast projects. Over the last 2 years I have moved my company's core business into developing/delivering technical broadcast training for Imagine Communications products.
